That’s what you can expect from diverse\, Midwest Indie-rockers\, Motherfolk. What started out as a writing project among two college friends turned into a fully re alized band untethered to genres\, with an endlessly bright future. Compos ed of Bobby Paver and Nathan Dickerson on vocals and guitar\, bassist Clay ton Allender\, drummer Ethan Wescott\, and Karlie Dickerson on keys Mother folk are not only bandmates\, but best friends. The band’s close-knit re lationship allows each member to be their most authentic self\, leaving ev ery ounce of their souls to be poured into each song and high-energy perfo rmance. Despite their light-hearted\, groovy-rock sound Motherfolk is dedi cated to creating a much deeper connection with their fans. They don’t s hy away from the taboo\, taking on heavy topicswith a light heart. The res ults provide us with music you can dance to\, whose impact is felt long af ter the song has ended. The band’s quirky friendship and social media po sts originally drew fans in\, but their connection to the music kept those fans around. Since their formation Motherfolk has been on a steady upward trajectory\, amassing well over 5 million Spotify streams on their three studio albums and selling out shows while touring heavily across the Unite d States. While COVID-19 halted the band’s year of touring plans\, Mothe rfolk spent the year hard at work\, creating and self-producing new music and they came out anew. Late summer 2021 will invigorate fans with new sin gles adorning the most refreshing and versatile Motherfolk sound to date\, leading up to a fall EP release. This next chapter is slated to be the mo st exciting one yet\, don’t miss it! LINE: An indie pop band unafraid to stretch and play with labels\, LINE weaves singer-songwriter sensibilitie s with multigenre arrangements. Vocalist Maddie Batzli works with bandmate s Austin Lynch\, Esther Chun\, and other collaborators to create songs tha t include multi-part harmonies\, intricate slap basslines\, folk instrumen tation\, and electronic synth tracks. LINE’s songs seek to span a wide r ange of emotion\, often within a single verse\, with personal reflection\, queer love\, and social commentary showing up as common themes. As a quee r band\, LINE’s willingness to explore paradoxes extends to playful stag e aesthetics and lyrics centering philosophical questions\, at once campy and achingly sincere. By sharing the vulnerability of holding multiple tru ths at once\, LINE aims to invite listeners to live more deeply into their own experiences. From daring to acknowledge (and contain) multitudes come s much needed space for possibility\, rare in a time when pessimism and ho pe can often feel like a binary.  \;\n\nCONTACT: music@union.wisc.edu\ n\nURL: https://union.wisc.edu/events-and-activities/event-calendar/event/ wud-music-presents-motherfolk-w-line LOCATION:The Sett\, Union South SUMMARY:WUD Music Presents: Motherfolk (w/ Line) URL;VALUE=URI:https://union.wisc.edu/events-and-activities/event-calendar/e vent/wud-music-presents-motherfolk-w-line END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=America/Chicago:20260408T210959 UID:204132@calendar.wisc.edu DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20250222T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20250222T200000 DESCRIPTION:Air Conditioner | Angola | 2020 | DCP | 73 min. | Portuguese wi th English subtitles Director: Fradique.
