The Grotto - Mother Hips Fan Community

The Mother Hips. Progenitors of California Soul. They are the songwriting riff-layers, harmonizing mood-swayers, lock-Rock-steady, mellow-sounding soothsayers of a time long gone but yet to occur. Peel back your radio ear and apply the headphone...

The Grotto is an online community of Mother Hips fans established in 1997 to break down geographic barriers and facilitate communication between Hips fans across town and on the other side of the world.

The "Are You Breathing?" Message Board is the heart of the thriving Mother Hips fan community and the main attraction here at The Grotto. You may browse or search our archives dating back to 1998. So far, 39,013 messages have been posted by fans like you.

The Grotto also serves MP3s of live Mother Hips shows and displays an extensive photo gallery.
