Man Man Announce Tour Dates
The brilliantly unconventional rock band Man Man have announced plans to take their legendary live show, which The Philadelphia Inquirer called “a pure adrenaline rush” and the Boston Globe proclaimed “storm of musical intensity,” back on the road for select dates in January 2014. All on sale times and locations can be found by visiting: http://manmanbandband.com/tour/.
Man Man's latest album, the critically acclaimed On Oni Pond arrived in stores on September 10th. Esquire called the record “an artistic and revelatory triumph” while the AV Club described it as “chock-full of other beautifully crafted oddities.” The new album features an arresting reconstruction of Man Man's visionary sound – stripped to its core and rebuilt as something new and compelling yet still very much Man Man. This shift is a direct result of an intensive collaboration between the band's frontman, Honus Honus (Kattner), and drummer Pow Pow, who has assumed a new-found prominence in the songwriting process, bringing an exhilarating array of new rhythmic ideas to the mix. The compositions were further honed by the band members along with producer Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes, First Aid Kit) into a compelling mash-up of Fear Of Music era Talking Heads, classic soul, psychedelia, hip hop, and 50’s rock and roll.
