Reb Fountain - Don't You Know Who I Am / Hey Mom 7"
The perfect compliment to each other, both ‘Don’t You Know Who I Am’ and ‘Hey Mom’ were recorded live in one take with Reb and her band. ‘Don’t You Know Who I Am’ was recorded live at Roundhead Studios for Reb’s acclaimed self titled album released during lockdown 2020. ‘Hey Mom’ was recorded live at Aotearoa’s own destination recording studio; Sublime Studios, set in the heart of Waitaki Valley.
"‘Don’t You Know Who I Am’ is about who we think we are, who we want to be, who we have become and who we have left behind. It’s a rallying cry to rise up, to unite, to fight the good fight. It’s a call to dig deep, wake up, open your eyes and beat your own drum. It bids you to hold fast, pick yourself up and keep on keeping on.”
‘Hey Mom’ was written during lockdown at Reb’s home. Reflecting on the distance between, the folding of time and the interwoven experience of childhood & motherhood, Reb turned on her voice recorder and Hey Mom emerged fully formed from start to finish. Working with Dave Khan on production, Reb was determined to capture the raw essence of that initial recording in a one take performance. Whilst undertaking a duo tour during level 2 Reb and Dave stopped into Sublime Studios and recorded this masterpiece. In the same vein as Reb’s ‘When Gods Lie’ 7 inch with exclusive b-side ‘Round The Bend’, ‘Don’t You Know Who I Am’ b-side, ’Hey Mom’ will only be available in this format.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
