Connor Bracken and The Mother Leeds Band are pleased to announce the release of their second studio album “Nightbird Motel” on Friday 25th September 2020. Two years in the making, the album captures the band’s intent to blend their live show energy with the superior sound of the studio.

The album was recorded in its entirety at Soundmine Studio, in the mountains of East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.
Based in Asbury Park, New Jersey, the same stomping grounds as Bruce Springsteen and Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, MLB is comprised of Connor Bracken (lead vocals, guitar), Rich Seyffart (drums, vocals), Chris Dubrow (bass, vocals), and Jeff Linden (guitar, vocals).

The band has received rave reviews for their energetic live shows. While staying true to their blues-rock roots, they have become a permanent fixture in today’s rock scene.
