Jimmy Mancus
In an era where acoustic singer/songwriters are scrambling to produce copycat, soft-rock love songs in the hopes of licensing them to every teen drama and MTV reality show in existence, Springbrook, PA's Jimmy Mancus has chosen a different and almost unthinkable approach...to go against the grain, writing music he likes, regardless of popularity or the lack thereof.
Mancus's soon-to-be-released new album "Move Down", is a testament to his mantra of doing things his own way. The album's 14 tracks consist of a diverse blend of styles, including acoustic, indie, funk, hip-hop, rock, and surf. In addition to Jimmy's own unique acoustic style and guitar riffs, the album features RasMG/"Field" Marshall Goodman, DJ for the multi-platinum selling band SUBLIME and the Long Beach Dub All-Stars, on the turntables...Clyde Rosencrance, the album's producer, on electric guitar...Lenny Mecca on bass...Eli Hludzik on drums...and Matthew Nakoa on keyboards.
Fans of great past bands like the ultra-popular indie group Dispatch, legendary reggae outfit Sublime and Norweigan funk-rockers The Getaway People, will find a touch of their spirit recalled within Mancus's music, while fans of contemporary singer/songwriters like Jack Johnson, G.Love, Dave Matthews and Citizen Cope can expect to discover, in Mancus, an artist who shares the same passion, creativity and uniqueness as those aforementioned.
No inflated egos or unrealistic expectations. No labeling as "the next big thing". Just solid music written and performed by talented artists. Listen and decide for yourself.
