<\/a>Guldemond says that the pandemic also led him to find a new, enjoyable part of the touring experience.<\/p>\n
\u201cOver the pandemic I fell in love with photography and have gotten pretty deep into that hobby, and so a new favourite aspect of touring is sneaking off and taking pictures of various cities,\u201d he says. \u201cThat has certainly opened up a new dimension of beauty in what is otherwise logistically… challenging.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mother Mother recently announced that they would be joining Imagine Dragons for a European stadium tour. Guldemond says that there’s a significance of playing stadiums to the band.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the modus operandi in all of this is to share your gifts with as many people as possible… And then you have to ask yourself, \u2018Why do I want to do that?\u2019 I guess at its core, it\u2019s to make the world a better place, because music heals, and music saves; music is a medicine. So that\u2019s why we want to play a stadium… [We] want to use that vehicle to spread as much light and love and medicinal properties that are found in music as much as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
Guldemond compares playing live to a spiritual experience; he says being excited for the upcoming stadium tour is \u201ckind of an understatement,\u201d saying he’s \u201cin awe of having an opportunity to partake in that kind of energy exchange.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSharing the music with people in a room, that human connection, there\u2019s so much synergy that happens there, there\u2019s so much mounting of energy that you and the crowd get swept away in,\u201d he says. \u201cIt can be a really spiritual experience, or however you want to describe those states of transcendence.\u201d<\/p>\n
