Mother's Cake are an Austrian rock band. They won the Local Heroes Austria band contest in 2010 and came in second at the European finals in Hungary.
History
In November 2008 Yves Krismer (guitar, vocals), Benedikt Trenkwalder (Bass) and Jan Haußels (Drums) met first to jam in Arzl im Pitztal, a small village in the Tyrolean Alps and hometown of Yves Krismer. Not long after that, they founded the band Mother's Cake. Their music is influenced by different bands like The Mars Volta, Porcupine Tree, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Led Zeppelin or Bootsy Collins. They play a mixture of funk, hard rock and progressive, psychedelic parts.
They started playing gigs in the western parts of Tyrol and also in its capital Innsbruck. In 2009 they entered their first big band contest with about 1.000 participating bands – the International Live Award feat. Austrian Band Contest 2010. They clearly won both preliminary rounds for Tyrol and Vorarlberg as favourites of the official judges. Despite of being the judges' favourites at the finals in Vienna they only came in third.[1]
At the beginning of 2010 they participated in the Local Heroes Austria 2010 Band Contest. They won the two preliminary rounds and the final round of the western Austrian states Vorarlberg, Tyrol and Salzburg as the judges' explicit favourites.[2] Finally, on May 29, 2010, they won the Austrian finals in Vienna. They were not only awarded for being the best band of the contest, but each band member separately for their musical achievements as best singer, best bass player and best drummer of the competition.[3]
On August 18, 2010 GoTV – the Austrian music TV channel – aired one hour of 'hosted by Mother‘s Cake' and the music video to 'Realitricked Me' was first shown in public.[4] The EP was published on September 1, 2010.
On November 26, 2010 they participated at the European finals of the Local Heroes 2010 Band Contest in Pécs/Hungary.[5] They competed against the Local Heroes finalists of Germany, Hungary and Italy and the finalists of different contests all over Europe. In the end, Mother's Cake came in second after the Danish band Rufus Spencer.[6]
The director Henning Backhaus, a student of Michael Haneke, used a couple of their songs for the soundtrack of his film "Local Heroes" and even involved the band at the shooting. The film is about the upsurge of a young band, just like Mother's Cake. The film was premiered at the 62. Berlin International Film Festival from February 9 to 19 2012.[7] On October 26, 2012 their debut album Creation's Finest has been released. In 2014, they supported Anathema on their 'Distant Satellites' tour.[8]
2015 saw Mother's Cake release their second studio album Love the Filth.
