Dan Mangan - "Oh Fortune"

Vancouver's Dan Mangan is quite possibly the best indie singer songwriter Canada has to offer. His 2009 release Nice, Nice, Very Nice is one of our favorite all time favorite albums here at Blue Sloth and was on the short list for the coveted 2010 Polaris Music Prize (2011 Polaris Music Prize Short List is announced tomorrow by the way)! His songs including "Robots" and "Road Regrets" are regarded with the highest of respect and talent by indie staples CBC Radio 3 and Sirius XM. I also I had the pleasure of seeing his talents live one very "liberal" night in Lethbridge, but most exciting is that Dan Mangan is set to release his new LP Oh Fortune on September 27, 2011. You can see the album art above and embedded below is the widget to his site and a free download of the first single and title track "Oh Fortune".

New Dan Mangan Album Teasers

Dan Mangan is undoubtedly one of our favorite Canadian artist here on Blue Sloth and we are highly, highly anticipating his follow up to Nice, Nice, Very Nice. But for now you can check out a couple teasers for the new album which is due out in September or October of this year. They don't give much a way in terms the sound of the new album, but it looks like Dan and the boy will be really exploring their vocal range and instrumentals this time around. See for yourself!
