Out now: Corrupt Autopilot – Greetings from Ghost Country

Friday, July 9th, 2010

The Corrupt Autopilot LP, Greetings from Ghost Country (SHT004), is out now at http://corruptautopilot.com! You can listen to the whole thing for free, and download the whole thing for as little as $5. Corrupt Autopilot is the music of Mother of Three bassist Dima Drjuchin, and Greetings from Ghost Country was brilliantly recorded and produced by Andrew Dunn and Ben Wigler, the brains and beards behind New Beard. The record is a circus of sound, featuring performances from: Yazan and Jonas from Mother of Three, Nik Dryuchin (AudioAmor), Eric Stephenson, Tony Waldman, Ben and Andrew from New Beard, Greg Barris (Heart of Darkness), Gian Carlo Feleppa (Mink Lungs, Emergency Party), Aerial East, and Leah Hayes. What a party!

Speaking of parties: on Saturday 10 July, Corrupt Autopilot will be playing their first show as a band, with Dima leading some of the above characters through a set of songs. Not only is it a birthday party (Dima turns 30!), and a record release party, but it’s also a benefit show for tattoo artist and friend Matty No Times. Matty had to get a new liver, but had no health insurance and is now paying for it, so we’re all helping out. Come on out, click the poster below for more info:

Mother of Three with Black Taxi, Janeane Garofalo

Monday, June 21st, 2010

First off, thanks to everyone who came out to our acoustic show last week at Sidewalk. What a night! We’ll be putting up some videos of our sets, and we’ll be doing it again soon. Thanks to The Telephones and New Beard for joining us, too!

Mother of Three is playing a last minute FREE SHOW with our pals Black Taxi at Rockwood Music Hall’s new Stage 2. It’s this coming Thursday at around 830PM. It is seriously rare that you’ll get to see such awesome performers for free — come out and make some noise with us. Click the poster below for more info:

Acoustic Sets by Yazan, Corrupt Autopilot, New Beard, Wigmaker’s Son, and Jesse Adelman

Saturday, June 12th, 2010

On Thurs 17 June, Yazan and Dima (Mother of Three) are joined by friends Jesse Adelman (The Telephones), New Beard, and Greg Barris (Heart of Darkness, Wigmaker’s Son) for a night of acoustic songs at Sidewalk Cafe, home of the anti-folk scene. Not exactly our scene, but it’s a good room with great sound, and there’s no cover and reasonably priced booze. These aren’t gonna be your average strummy, yawn-y acoustic tunes — it’s gonna be a raucous night.

Dima will be playing as Corrupt Autopilot, debuting some songs from his upcoming LP Greetings from Ghost Country, while Yazan will be playing songs from his upcoming solo LP as well.

So, where were we?

Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010

It’s 2010!

Actually it’s been that way for a few months now, but we’ve been too busy/isolated for updates. “What happened?” you ask. Let’s see:

  • Yazan was on a vision quest, cultivating thoughts and songs in the Californian desert. He’s back in New York now, and Mother of Three is gearing up for a few upcoming shows (more on that in a minute).
  • Dima has also been writing his songs, but getting ready for his big solo art show at Gallery AD in San Jose, CA. It opens at the beginning of April, so if you’re in the area, you should check it out and even maybe buy a supremely wise investment of a painting.
  • Jonas just got back from Hawaii!

Next show is going to be on Mar 30 at Comix in NY backing some of the Heart of Darkness crew: comedians Greg Barris and Yannis Pappas are headlining the show, along with NYC favorites Roger Hailes and the legendary Mike O’Rourke. Mother of Three will be warming the crowd up, as well as supporting the comedians and making sure the good jokes are even funnier and the bad jokes don’t crash silently. For more info, click: here.

Finally, Mother of Three will be playing a full on rock show with some friends: we’ll be playing at Bowery Electric in NY on April 21 with Research + Development, New Beard, and Lavalier. More info on that show soon!

Mother of Three and Heart of Darkness at CMJ: PureVolume Showcase

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

Mother of Three at CMJ PureVolume showcase, Friday 23 Oct

Mother of Three at CMJ PureVolume showcase, Friday 23 Oct

There is probably no better way for Mother of Three to end the year than with CMJ. Both shows we’re playing are going to be off the hook parties with open bar, and some of the best acts we’ve played with. PureVolume and L’asso Pizza are sponsoring five nights of mayhem at Collective Hardware, with open bar and artists hawking their wares, and Mother of Three is playing two of those nights: our live set one night, and our alter egos as house band for the Heart of Darkness comedy show the other night. (The brilliant poster above was made by none other than Mother of Three posterer and bassist, Dima Drjuchin.)

On Friday 23 Oct, we’ll be playing with fellow New York bands Lavalier and The Bowery Riots. It’s going to be a throwdown, and your last chance to see Mother of Three for the rest of 2009. Best of all, it’s free: you just have to sign up at http://PureVolume.com/house. I don’t know how many spots they have for people without CMJ passes, so I’d recommend signing up soon. Mother of Three is going to bring it, and Lavalier and The Bowery Riots are sure to put on great shows too.

On Saturday 24 Oct, Mother of Three is going to be backing Heart of Darkness, featuring comedy/performance luminaries Reggie Watts*, David Cope, and Dave Hill* (as well as Heart of Darkness founders Greg Barris and Mike O’ Rourke) [*NOTE: Reggie Watts and Dave Hill both canceled -- boo. Victor Varnado will be performing instead, as well as a mystery guest]. After the show, at which point your mind is sure to be blown, and you’ll have certainly thought that’s all the expansion of the mind you’ll be able to endure for the night, you will have to prepare yourself to stretch that mind-hole just a little wider and catch a screening of the brilliant Everything is Terrible movie. People have been posting YoutTube clips put up by the EIT crew all over the place, and now you can see their best work all at once.

If you miss these shows, we’ll be sad, but you will likely be sadder. Mother of Three will be returning to the public in Feb 2010, so don’t cry too hard, or at least not too long. So, sign up now!
