The super-gorgeous, super-limited first edition CD of "Greenlight Love (TAX THE RICH) - Sonic Weapon Mix" is now available through the MAMA shop on this site! On May 1, it hits all streaming platforms. Don't forget to add it to your playlists!

Gavin and I are supporting Gorstey Lea, a genre-blurring, emotionally-charged band drawing inspiration from a wide sweep of British and American influences – from the punk and ska of The Clash and The Specials, to the shimmering psychedelia of Echo & The Bunnymen and the poetic pop of Richard Hawley and Cherry Ghost.

"Wolverhampton-based multiplatinum producer Gavin Monaghan and his author fiancée, Antonella Gambotto-Burke, who, as MAMA ft. Antonella have just been placed into the first ballot for Best New Artist and Best Rock Album by the GRAMMY Awards® committee, are playing Birmingham on October 30.

"Industry buzz has been building around the duo since the release of their debut album Apex Predators. The gritty, nine-track, lo-fi masterpiece was described by veteran music critic Kris Needs, in Electronic Sound Magazine, as, 'a riveting stone killer, supercharged with searing intensity and fried circuit gumbo that'll barbecue your ham-hocks' ..."

"Antonella's incredible vocal range meets the musical energy of legendary producer Gavin Monagham to create an irresistible force ..."

"We've been so humbled by the response," Monaghan said. "While I knew that Antonella’s voice is hit-the-floor amazing, it's easier for me to gauge the work of others than my own, so I wasn't really sure what to expect. We spent so much time creating the album that it had become a universe unto itself."

"In this weeks episode we had a chat with Gavin Monaghan, the brains behind our debut album 'Live for the Moment'. We chat about the memories recording early demos in 2014, we go into detail about the changes in the music industry, and Gavin explains how he ended up in the film 'Quadrophenia' ..."

“GHOST is the hauntingly explosive stand-out from MAMA ft. Antonella’s freshly-released debut album Apex Predators. The duo crafts a cinematic, stadium-sized piece of bluesy art-rock, featuring an intricately arranged composition that adds even more depth to the acrobatic vocal performance ... a stunning introduction ..."

"MAMA ft. Antonella's music is like, you know, taking a ride out to the desert, taking a nice handful of peyote and shoving it deep down in a pipe and, you know, taking a trip and going to the clouds, baby! Jim Morrison who? Little bit of Morrison, little bit of Floyd, and a little bit of, you know, Satan. I love it! ... The pipes on that woman, oh my God!"

"Picture velvet vocals wrapped around barbed-wire blues riffs, held together with the heartbeat of something both primal and unsaid ..."

"MAMA Ft Antonella are a duo: Antonella Gambotto-Burke, a lyrical genius, a poetic Princess plus an elite enigma, and Gavin Monaghan, multi-platinum Magic Garden Studio Producer. A master of crafts. MAMA’s melts you with her hypnotic and hurricane splitting vocal range, which BIMM Music Institute Professor Jonathan Day, has likened to that of Robert Plant. It soars, it bites, it licks, it kisses, it whispers, it yelps, it strangles you until you submit. It’s an everlasting hug, it’s a raging butterfly. It pauses time, and it’s a viper in lingerie. That accompanied with Monaghan’s ability to deliver a raucously intricate choreographed guitar style; a sound that wraps around you with the dramatic impact of a Hitchcock flick, is enough to create one formidable creature. Maybe MAMA is the Apex Predator? Nah, she couldn’t be, could she?" ...

"Hear the star-studded story behind the brilliant new band @mamaftantonella on my latest show @BrumRadio"

"As MAMA ft. Antonella, Antonella Gambotto-Burke and multiplatinum producer Gavin Monaghan release their hotly-anticipated debut album, Apex Predators, on May 21.

"The buzz, as industry insiders say, has already begun.

"Antonella, who was invited to judge the prestigious British MPG Awards in April and who is being interviewed for an upcoming global music documentary series ('I’m not at liberty to reveal details yet!'), will also be featured in the autumn issue of a major US magazine and may also be posing for a Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair cover photographer.

“'Who knows what will happen,' she says. 'I was asked, but it all depends whether I can get to New York later this year!'" ...

"MAMA Ft. Antonella is a duo that brings together two creative forces: Antonella Gambotto-Burke and Gavin Monaghan. Antonella (who once turned down the chance to sing for The Jesus and Mary Chain) has a presence that’s theatrical, emotional, and totally unpredictable. Monaghan, often referred to as a musical mastermind, brings polish and edge to everything he touches. Together, they’ve released Apex Predators, a debut album that isn’t afraid to go deep or strange ..."
