Nice, Nice, Very Nice

Description

Titled in reference to a Kurt Vonnegut poem, Nice, Nice, Very Nice was recorded in Toronto in fall 2008 under the creative eye of producer John Critchley (Elliott Brood, 13 Engines). Dropping in to add their talents were such hero Canadian artists as Justin Rutledge, Veda Hille, Mark Berube and members of Elliott Brood, Said The Whale, Hidden Cameras, Major Maker and Small Sins.

There is a raw rootsiness to Nice, Nice, Very Nice that touches on aspects of indie-pop. There are a number of toe-tappers amid his trademark lamentations and, though it’s mellow at times, what Mangan has to offer isn’t overly precious or delicate. He simply writes songs that evoke the wonder and the absurdity in what we do.

    Incredible

    Excellent from every aspect! This album quickly became one of my favourites. I'm really hoping he gets the Polaris Award.

    More than nice, nice, very nice.

    I was browsing the line up for MFNW and getting acquainted with some of the artists I was unfamiliar with when I discovered Mr Mangan. When I heard Robots Tina's Glorious Comeback, and Fair Verona, I more or less immediately decided that I am seeing him at the festival. The album as a whole is pretty great and varied. When the CD arrived, I really enjoyed the fact that in the sleeve notes, along with the lyrics, Mangan tells us a little bit about the meaning behind the song...great added feature! Can't wait to see him live!

    Love it in Ireland

    This album, and Dan Mangan himself, got a small, but warm, write up in the Irish Times newspaper in Ireland, so I thought I would give it a listen (it helps that I am a fellow Canadian) and was immediately smitten. I would easily recommend this to anyone, as there is not a weak track on the album.

    The best album in years.

    Brilliantly written songs, played with heart and incredible musicianship. Every track is a gem. I've been listening to this album non-stop for almost a year. Can't wait for his next album!
