American pop group The Mommyheads is about to hit these shores this weekend and play a couple of shows with some great Finnish support acts Bookends, Flannelmouth and The Everglades. They are a very fine band although I must admit that I’m only familiar with their Geffen released self-titled album from 1997. That was a really good pop album even though I don’t think it sold that well (good music rarely does). Some of their earlier stuff seem to be on spotify, so I need to do some background work on that. The band split up in 1998, but reformed a couple of years ago and are making new music. Their latest album Delicate Friction is due out March 18, 2011 on Dead Frog Records in Scandinavia. Check out their latest single Another Crowded House from the upcoming album below.
