<font color="#FFFFFF" size="2" face="Arial">MAMA GOT FIVE is a pop
rock band from Toulouse, France. MAMA GOT FIVE is composed of three
brothers, who all play and sing : Phil, Mama's first, plays the bass
; John, Mama's second, plays the guitar ; Joe, Mama's third, plays
drums. Why do they call themselves MAMA GOT FIVE ? Phil’s,
John’s and Joe’s mother had 5 boys ; the three eldests started
this pop band in 2000. They write strong and original songs,
supported by an up-to-date sound. The three brothers have been
playing music together since their early days. They recorded their
first studio CD in 5 days; this 5 tracks CD was released in early
2001. Best seller among auto produced records at the FNAC records
shop in Toulouse, it was received with strong enthusiasm from many
national and local radios. All five songs were played as « Our
Choice Song » and entered the daily program planning of many local
radios. It was a fresh, melodic and lively music,and it had a strong
impact on Mama Got Five’s audiences through the many concerts they
played in many different clubs and festivals (particularly at the
Bikini Club, biggest rock venue in Toulouse). In October 2001, MAMA
GOT FIVE played a successful show at the FORUM FNAC (records shop)
in Toulouse, then appeared in their first TV show in November 2001.
National radio « Le Mouv’ » aired Mama Got Five music while the
band played many gigs through southern France. In May 2002, MAMA GOT
FIVE got national rank 11 for a « XXX de France » (radio network)
classification (according to the number of broadcasts). In August
2002, they played in front of 3000 people at the « Riff Mania »
Festival for charity association « Les Restos du Cœur ». In
November 2002, Mama Got Five’s 5 titles CD started to be
distributed by the Musicast company. Over 2002-2015, Mama Got Five
played in many Toulouse clubs and around. In May 2015, they appeared
on their 2nd TV show. During the summer of 2015, the band played in
several festivals and toured on the French seaside, playing before
large audiences. In September 2015, they were headliners of the
"Combines à Sons" festival (in the roman arena in
Toulouse). In the beginning of 2016, the distribution of the first
CD of Mama Got Five was extended (this record is now sold out). On
April 22nd 2016, Mama Got Five played again at the FNAC records shop
in Toulouse. In 2005, Mama Got Five recorded a 12 tracks album at
the famous Condorcet Studio in Toulouse. At the end of 2005, after
listening to their album, Mama Got Five were invited to play at the
Cavern Club in Liverpool and also to play in Los Angeles, for the
International Pop Overthrow (IPO) festival in 2006. The « Shine On
» song was programmed as an opening to the «This Is Rock 'n' Roll
Radio .. 341 » radio show (USA) on 12th November 2005 ; the band
was rated as “terrific”. At the beginning of 2006, this radio
show played MAMA GOT FIVE several times again (« Shine On » and «
Uh Lah Lah » songs).<br>
