Dandy Warhols' Zia McCabe on being a rock mum

Dandy Warhols' Zia McCabe says touring with her two-year-old daughter Matilda is a positive experience, though the rest of the band have had to moderate their behaviour.

Dandy Warhols instrumentalist Zia McCabe has been talking about what it's like being a mother on tour. McCabe, whose two year old daughter Matilda is accompanying her on the road, says: "It's totally the popular time to be a woman with a career and a kid. I love that she's on tour with us and having a different upbringing".

Luckily for her, husband Travis Hendricks works and tours with the band, so the whole family can stay together, but the rest of the Dandies have had to get used to it. Apparently they've adapted pretty well though, despite having to moderate their language and behaviour in front of the toddler. "I definitely feel that it makes an impact on how enjoyable it is to be on the bus for everyone else',' McCabe says, "I feel kind of bad about that".
