At 25 years of age, Vancouver-based artist Dan Mangan has already toured Canada, the UK, USA and Australia numerous times. He’s played coffee shops to six people and festival stages to a thousand.

On his new album Nice, Nice, Very Nice, Mangan weaves unique lyrical phrases that you feel you must always have known. He delivers them with his signature graveled vocals and understated humour. He doesn’t lean on ironic instruments or gimmicks. Somehow, it all just works. Dan stands up and people get quiet. They listen. More and more people all the time.
