Heather Anne Lomax Shares New Video For ‘Mama’s Sleepin”

Los Angeles-based Americana/Country-rock singer-songwriter Heather Anne Lomax has shared a cinematic music video for her empowering single “Mama’s Sleepin’” from her debut album The Doman Tracks (Blackbird Record Label) released earlier this month. Watch the “Mama’s Sleepin’” music video, filmed in Los Angeles and directed by Taylor Hungerford, directly below.

The video, starring actor Todd Lowe, is released in advance of the record release show November 29 at The Troubadour, Los Angeles.

The video stars actor Todd Lowe (“Gilmore Girls,” ”True Blood”) and was premiered yesterday (November 27) via Americana Highways which noted: “This song tackles the harsh reality of having no choice but to live under the authority of a harsh adult head on. [The lyric] ‘Leave us kids alone, don’t you holler while my Mama’s sleepin’’ is strong, direct, and heavy hitting. Lomax has an authority of her own that comes across loud and clear here in her vocals and in the music; it’s cathartic and empowering.”

Heather Anne says “‘Mama’s Sleepin’” is “a cathartic fuck-you to my adoptive dad, who was abusive verbally, and physically sometimes.”

Heather Anne will celebrate the release of The Doman Tracks  with a special record release show tomorrow, November 29, in Los Angeles, CA at the Troubadour with special guests Manda Mosher and Abby Posner (who are also part of Blackbird Record Label). Actor Todd Lowe will be in attendance, giving out some of the signed headshots that were used in the filming of the “Mama’s Sleepin’” video to random attendees. Tickets for the show are still available HERE.

 
The Doman Tracks consists of eight collaborative songs recorded with the late Michael Doman, formerly the singer-songwriter-producer of the noted ‘80s L.A. rock band Broken Homes. The pair cut the intimate material during two years of recording sessions, and they were set aside until Heather revisited them following Doman’s untimely death from a brain ailment in December of 2020.

With Lomaxon lead vocals and guitar, Doman sang duet and added background vocals and the pair enlisted guitarist Jeff Sebens in addition to support from various other local players to record the tracks live. The album’s engineer Jason Hiller added bass parts later.
