Founded in late 2008, Mother’s Cake drew attention of the Viennese label GAB Music and got signed. Their debut “Creation’s Finest” (release-date: 26-10-2012) got featured by Ikey Owens († 2014, member of The Mars Volta & Jack White). Creation’s Finest created a big stir in Austrian music press and ensured Mother’s Cake a firm stand in the business.

The first single “Soul Prison” (17-08-2012) reached over 200,000 views on Youtube.

In 2013, they got awarded with the “Austrian Newcomer Award″ and played many sold-out shows including support gigs for Iggy and the Stooges, Omar Rodriguez Lopez Group, Deftones and Tito & Tarantula.

The “Endless Space Tour 2014″ led them to Australia in February 2014. They band was welcomed cordially in Down Under and successfully played 12 shows in 2 weeks. On April 4, Mother’s Cake released their album in Germany, played a tour there and announced their new video project.

“Off The Beaten Track” presents itself as a 45-minutes long movie that features a whole live-set of Mother’s Cake. It was funded successfully through a crowd-funding project and was officially released on July 17, 2014.

In fall 2014, Mother’s Cake supported Anathema on their Distant Satellites tour leading through 20 countries playing 42 shows in 56 days.

At the moment, the group is busy producing their second studio-album.

Formed in late 2011, the five piece band combines elements of Rock, Blues, Funk and Singer-Songwriter within their original music. 
The self produced, 2013 Debut EP „Relation“ contains six diverse songs, yet still filled with catchy melodies. In May of the same year, Jay Bano reached the finals of Austrias biggest band contest, “Local Heroes“. 
In 2015, they supported legendary Austrian rock band No Bros at their reunion show in Viennese cult club Metropol. 
After a few quiet years and other projects by its band members (Saltbrennt, MIM), Jay Bano releases its first new single Single Life in 2020, produced by Austrian composer and singer Freddy Gigele .
Further new material is about to be released the same year.

Our musical style can best be described as progressive rock with influences from jazz, classical music and math rock, but we are open to different categorisations by anybody who listens to us with an open mind.

One characteristic of our music is that it features the upright bass and piano as central elements alongside more typical instruments of rock music such as drums and guitars. Occasionally, we also incorporate instruments like glockenspiel and drum pad, always trying to afford them their own space and meaning.

 

In addition to our affinity for complex rhythms, powerful guitar riffs and a play with musical themes our music is mainly characterised by a broad dynamic spectrum.

 

In our view music is a uniting force, which is why we are happy about every single person who connects with us through music. We also think that being able to make music is a gift and so we hope that we will still have plenty of time to share this gift with everybody who takes the time to listen to us.

Our recent album “zero son” marks a big milestone in our musical career. Rather than being more complex, overly cerebral and meticulous, the music featured on it appears simpler, more compact and more purposeful. Some of the tracks came into existence in a very short amount of time, with a true urgency to be written down. This sense of urgency, of imminence and tangibility, which we tried to capture when we recorded this album, is what makes “zero son” into a personal and emotional listening experience.

'Opening The Door' EP out 16 September
