Today is Mother’s Day 2017, so what better day is there to announce that extreme underground act Grindmother is asking for your help? The band, which is fronted by a 66-year-old retired social worker, has launched a Kickstarter campaign. It will purportedly focus on the origin story of the intriguing grindcore metal band.
Members commented:
“Since she accidentally stumbled into the rock n roll lifestyle in 2015, Grindmother has been captivating the world with her amazing story.”
“It’s been truly awesome to see the transformation she has made from a 66 year-old retired social worker into a grindcore frontwoman who has released an album and performed in 28 cities this year.”
“I will tell her full story in a 30-45 minute film.”
“We will properly document an upcoming tour, to shed some light onto what her life is like and why she chooses to continue performing at her age. We will also visit with fans, some who have incredibly touching stories, that have been more inspired by Grindmother than we even thought possible!”
