Vixens of Fall have unveiled their most heartfelt track to date, Make My Mama Proud. More than just a song; it’s a vow, a deeply feminine love letter wrapped in the magic of motherhood. Produced by country legend Rod McCormack at The Music Cellar, the track features the trio's signature harmonies, accompanied by acoustic guitars, fiddle, and mandolin. The result is a shimmering slow burn that resonates with the warmth of old soul country.
The music video captured by Jake Davey, offers an intimate behind the scenes glimpse into the real lives of Vixens of Fall, a raw and heartwarming tribute to the magic of motherhood and the strength of generations. Featuring three generations of fierce, fabulous women, it plays out like a love letter to their family tree, wrapped in nostalgia, pride, and a whole lot of heart.
“Our video celebrates 3 generations of strong women. Watching her interact with Scout (Nina’s daughter) reminded us of the times she would do those things with us as kids. It was powerful, emotional and it strengthened our bond even more.”
The sisters, Nina, Wren, and Lulu shared their inspiration behind the song “There isn’t anything like a mother’s love, and we couldn’t think of a better way than to immortalise our favourite woman than with a ballad reminiscent of our youth. When you’re younger, you think your parents don’t understand you… and then as you grow into adults, you realise your mum is your best friend and you couldn’t do life without her.”
The song had been quietly tucked away for five years, the only secret the sisters say they’ve ever kept from their mother. Penned alongside Lucy Parle and Gina Jeffreys, the song’s emotional weight proved almost too much to bear at times during recording. “It took us all a while to be able to record certain lines, because of the tears that welled in our eyes... We gifted the song to her for Mother’s Day, and her reaction was everything. This song is more than a song, it’s our story.”:
With festival slots at Gympie Music Muster, Urban CMF, and Savannah in the Round, along with headline dates across the east coast, the Vixens of Fall are set to light up stages throughout the year.
