Great New Video, Amazing Album.
From my first listen to Manchester’s album “Mean Everything To Nothing” …I knew it was “that kind of record”. That kind of record that you can’t stop listening to, and that doesn’t get old.

Album’s that I listen to regularly have songs that take time to grow on you, the music and lyrics become meaningful over time. The new Manchester album has these qualities, but the songs pull you in immediately. The songs are solid, the production is loud & raw but clean and well mixed.

The new video for Shake It Out spoofs Over The Top, what an awesome idea. It’s hilarious and it actually works really well with the song. Check it out:

My M.O. Trucker Hat

I had the opportunity to meet with Jason Hradil at the Sony offices in New York last week. Jason is responsible for creative marketing behind many of Sony’s artist’s including Manchester Orchestra.  Needless to say, I walked out with a sweet Manchester trucker hat.

The band did an amazing job telling the stories behind the songs on their album, check it out on: Manchester Orchestra’s MAB profile

Also, listen to three tracks from their album: I’ve got FriendsShake It Out and The Only One on our player above.

We are so honored to have Manchester Orchestra as the first featured artist on My Audio Bio. We want to thank Andy and the guys for writing their MAB  stories while touring Europe. Thanks to Jay Harren from Sony for pulling everything together, and getting us our first choice for featured artist.
