The Mother’s Cake Australian Tour 2014 has been announced.

Progressive rockers from the heart of Europe, Austria’s very own Mother’s Cake will make their first ever visit to Australia in February 2014.

Mother’s Cake will be showcasing tracks from their debut record Creation’s Finest including single ‘Soul Prison’, which features Ikey Owens from The Mars Volta on keyboards. The album is due for Australian release in February 2014 through Inaway Records.

Taking the European live circuit by storm the band has recently supported the likes of Iggy Pop and the Stooges, Velvet Revolver, Living Colour, LeTigre, Deftones, Omar Rodriguez Band, and more, cleaning up audiences and critics alike. Mother Cake’s music is also featured in director Henning Backhaus’s (a student of Michael Haneke) film Local Heroes, which premiered at 62nd Berlin International Film Festival in 2012.

Mother’s Cake was founded in 2008 when three musicians came together to embody the spirit of revolution and change of the 1970s with the concurrent tendencies of their generation.

The trio, consisting of the outstanding individual musicians Yves Krismer, Benedikt Trenkwalder, and Jan Haußels, features dynamic and ambitious songwriting that reminds of legends like The Mars Volta, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix.

Mother’s Cake’s music is based on a complex netting of rhythm and harmonic possibilities without losing its own authenticity or having the effect of artificiality. Their lyrics express feelings of revolution, love, independence and freedom.
