A nationally aired interview with NPR, being listed as the best electronic artist in Seattle by the Seattle Weekly, performing live in studio at KEXP, being named a favorite by CMJ. It’s safe to say Manatee Commune has been staying busy over the past year. Besides the release of his debut record the last year has largely been spent honing his live performance at festivals like Decibel, Bumbershoot, Capitol Hill Block Party, Sasquatch, What The Festival, & Bonnaroo. Combining textures of the rainy woods and the windy seas of the Pacific Northwest with the calming mood of clean surfy guitar licks and rolling arpeggiated sine waves, Manatee Commune seeks to capture the atmosphere of taking a thoughtful, self-reflecting stroll through the forest.
