Hailing from an island in the Outer Hebrides, Mother Night's brand of infectious, dreamy ‘Pagan Pop’ is something else. 'The Shaman' is their new single. Mother Night recently announced their debut album, A Lifetime of Uninhibited Pleasure, will be released in the new year, and it might be one of the most exciting new records of 2019, a thrilling dreamy collage spread across nine tracks.

But before we get ahead of ourselves, a fine taster from the upcoming record is out now in the form of new single ‘The Shaman’, a stellar introduction to a group you’re going to be hearing a lot about over the next year.

Crafted on an island in the Outer Hebrides, Mother Night have already been out supporting the likes of Public Service Broadcasting, Sugar Candy Mountain and Colin Macleod, whilst penning an album deal with the State51 Conspiracy and lining up a series of new releases over the coming year.
