We are Ask Your Mom – a band of dads that has been together since 2005. Despite outward appearances, we know how to rock a room. Whether it is a sweaty bar or a wedding under a tent or a giant outdoor festival, we get people to dance.
Where and when is Ask Your Mom playing next?
- Saturday April 18 – College Hill Tavern, Easton, PA
- Friday July 10: SummerCon – venue TBD – Brooklyn, NY
We play covers other bands usually don’t. Yes, we play American Girl by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers but we also play Even the Losers and Makin’ Some Noise. We like to think of our genre as “classic alternative” – not classic rock like commercial radio and not “alternative” like black eyeliner but a nice combination of the two. Sort of like your older cool cousin and whatever he listened to. A little bit of 1st Wave or Little Steven’s Underground Garage on Sirius/XM.
Every song we have ever played live (in order - mostly...)

North Star (Pound Ridge, NY) – 36 times and counting
