With millions of Spotify streams and a knack for blending organic and electronic sounds, Gamblers has become a standout force in modern indie music. Their hit single “Another Dose,” featuring Mick Jenkins, propelled their 2022 remix EP "When We Exit" into the spotlight, earning critical acclaim and a loyal fanbase. The group has seen airplay on both Sirius XM’s “Underground Garage” and local radio and has also been featured in PopMatters, Under the Radar, Paste Music, and other publications.
Led by founder and bandleader Michael McManus, Gamblers has transformed life’s challenges into electrifying music. Their latest album, Pulverizer, showcases their signature fusion of indie-pop, funk, and disco influences. The infectious grooves and sharp hooks tackle weighty themes with a vibrant energy that’s both contemplative and celebratory. The band’s dynamic live performances are anchored by drummer Johnny Hoblin’s precision and guitarist Jimmy Usher’s pop instincts, creating an experience that’s as polished as it is heartfelt.
With influences ranging from the Beach Boys to Mobb Deep and a sound described as “deep, patient, and hook-laden,” Gamblers is redefining what it means to be an indie band.
