Description
Influenced by what Mann calls the "superpop" of the 70's and 80's, this album is her first release since 2008's celebrated @#%&*! Smilers, which the BBC website called "undeniably beautiful."
The album also includes a duet with James Mercer of The Shins on "Living a Lie." Mann will support the new album with tour dates this autumn.

Press Quotes

National Public Radio
"She and her foils tap a seam of pure gold...special...rich...acute"
Mojo (4*)
"Smart psyche baring songs..."
Uncut 8/10
"...classy... laced with lyrics full of insight and wit... her elegant vocals float above songs propelled by clipped guitars and bubbling synths."
Peterborough Telegraph (9/10)
"As before, the quality of her songwriting dazzles with its perception and economy: Ms. Mann's characters are exposed with just a phrase or two."
The Wall Street Journal
"Mann's best record for years...with a poetic brilliance."
Mojo (50 Best Albums of 2012)
