Mother Nature’s Son – The Seven People You Meet In Heaven

Mother Nature’s Son (MNS) are an injection of fresh energy into Buffalo’s music scene. Their synth-meets-guitar music is as intriguing as it is energizing, and they’ve just released a magnum opus of an EP into the world. The Seven People You Meet In Heaven is perhaps unsurprisingly inspired by Mitch Albom’s The Five People You Meet In Heaven – a novel that talks about interconnectedness, life meaning, and purpose.

At any rate, MNS knows how to craft a catchy hook, and if “Angel Attack” is any indication, The Seven People You Meet In Heaven is going to be full of inescapable melodies.   Check out “Angel Attack” via the YouTube embed below.
