Bio

Serious songs from goofy people. That’s what you can expect from diverse, Midwest indie-rockers, Motherfolk.

Composed of Nathan Dickerson on vocals and guitar, bassist Clayton Allender, guitar and vocals Joel Borton, drummer Ethan Wescott, and Karlie Dickerson on keys Motherfolk are not only bandmates, but best friends. The band’s close-knit relationship allows each member to be their most authentic self, leaving every ounce of their souls to be poured into each song and high-energy performance.

Despite their light-hearted, groovy-rock sound Motherfolk is dedicated to creating a much deeper connection with their fans. They don’t shy away from the taboo, taking on heavy topics with a light heart. The results provide us with music you can dance to, whose impact is felt long after the song has ended.

The band’s quirky friendship and social media posts 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 20 million Spotify streams on their three studio albums and selling out shows while touring heavily across the United States.
