Mamalarky’s tenderly tangled indie rock has the internal logic of ridiculous jokes shared between band members after spending weeks on the road together. The sum of friendships and collaborations dating back to their teenage years, the band melds flashy instrumental moves with head-sticking hooks and lovesick lyrics welcoming anyone into their private world.
While Mamalarky are ostensibly an indie-pop group, they stand out from the laid-back melancholy moods of contemporaries with complex instrumental interplay that inspires lean-forward listening.

Kennedy Mann’s compositions strike you in the heart and linger like a bittersweet memory. Her latest full length, Maybe Tomorrow, arrived in October of last year on Julia’s War Recordings. But her journey as a songwriter began with Philadelphia-based band Highnoon’s first album, Semi Sweet (2019), a project consisting of homespun pop-rock tunes. She and her band went on to open for artists like Leith Ross, Horse Jumper of Love, and Frankie Cosmos. As Kennedy continued to write, she quickly became memorable for her poignant lyricism, tender vocals, and sharp melodic skill on stage and online.
