ALMA has shared a new song, ‘Hey Mom Hey Dad’

The track is a candid exploration of ALMA's upbringing and the difficulties she faced growing up with two parents in wheelchairs.

ALMA has unveiled her first new material of 2023, the poignant ‘Hey Mom Hey Dad’. The track is a candid exploration of ALMA’s upbringing and the difficulties she faced growing up with two parents in wheelchairs.

ALMA opened up about the song, saying “Some people know that I come from a dysfunctional family and until now I have never really wanted to tell my story. By dysfunctional I mean that both of my parents are in a wheelchair – my father has MS and my mother has been ill with different stuff throughout the years. It’s been hard at times, and I feel like me and my twin sister had to grow up too quickly.”

The singer-songwriter went on to share her admiration for her parents, saying “My parents have however taught me so much – especially about never giving up. I’m happy I can share this through my music and help my fans who are in a similar position to know they are not alone. This song is not a sad story – it’s just a real story. No family is perfect, but we are all trying our best.”
