Hello! We are Allegra and Etta from Momma :) We first met in high school in Los Angeles, and we started writing songs together when we were 16 and 17 years old. After going to separate colleges, (Etta in New York, and Allegra in New Orleans), and some trial and error with band members, we eventually all met back up in New York, and started writing with Aron Kobayashi-Ritch who also plays bass and produces our songs. Preston Fulks is our drummer :)

We are influenced by the music that we loved and bonded over as teenagers. Throughout the years we have evolved our sound into something more uniquely “Momma” – big guitars, strong hooks, and some unexpected production aspects thanks to Aron.

We will always love the music we loved as teenagers such as Pinback, Liz Phair, Pavement, etc. However, writing this record we were listening to more contemporary artists like Hovvdy, Narrow Head, and Alex G. Frou Frou/Imogen Heap is also a big influence on us.

Having a big fat crush and a lot of alcohol :)
