Being a mother is an adventure in life that is a blessing all its own. It requires a whole new form of strength and courage from the moment it begins.
3300+ Climbing wanted to take the time to honor some of the mothers who are raising little legacies alongside maintaining a legendary career. On its own, being a mother can definitely get hard and I can only imagine the hard-work these mothers in music have had to put in to take care of their baby cubs while working in a sleepless industry.
“Motherhood is the biggest gamble in the world. It is the glorious life force. It’s huge and scary – it’s an act of infinite optimism.”
-Gilda Radner
