The Slaps perform Mudglimmer on tour
The Slaps & Manwolves

  • The Slaps

    The Slaps

    Alternative

    As proven on their strange and beautiful new album Mudglimmer, the looming specter of artistic oblivion pushed The Slaps to lean into their idiosyncrasies: snaking rhythms, complicatedly interlocking guitar riffs, grubby yet alluring poetry, and homespun post-modern Americana sing-alongs all surge with a free-wheeling improvisatory verve informed by free jazz. It’s a stunning DIY comeback story, a doubling-down on avant-garde impulses that pays immediate dividends.

    Spontaneous composition and earnest, threadbare folk collide on Mudglimmer. It’s a marvel of influential synthesis, evoking Slint’s comfortability with ominous tension (“Mudglimmer”), Tortoise’s slinky push-pull grooves (“Filthy Sex Manuevers”), Waxahatchee’s slice-of-life Americana gems (“Flip”), elliptical funk-punk a la The Minutemen (“Forward”), minimal grunge-pop in the vein of Sebadoh (“King”) and so much more.

    Mudglimmer, in short, rips. Faced with existential threats, The Slaps reconfigured and reenergized — finding purpose, not in reaching for a brass ring, but in becoming fully, unashamedly, their own wonderfully confounding thing.

    Manwolves

    Alternative Rap

    Manwolves is: Jamie McNear (vocals), Eli Cohen (guitar), Henry Wolf (bass), Julian Freeman (drums), and Ari Garfin (keys). 5 guys, whose friendships span beyond a decade, found the perfect formula to take their individual music palettes and create the perfect blend of alternative, rock, hip-hop and jazz sound Manwolves is known for today. Since their formation, the group has amassed over 65 million streams across platforms, has been featured on multiple editorial playlists such as Spotify’s “Low-Key” and Apple Music “Travis Mills Show”, charted #3 on Spotify’s Viral Chart, and has sold out multiple headlining shows in venues such as Thalia Hall, Lincoln Hall, Chop Shop, & Subterranean. They’ve had the opportunities to play alongside other major up and coming acts such as Ric Wilson and open for acts such as Omar Apollo and Boy Pablo. In recent years the band experimented with new sounds and musical approaches pushing them into a sonic shift with a more live feel. Stepping into this new era, Manwolves are back with full force. In anticipation of their upcoming album, Manwolves are releasing a two-part EP, Slipping on Ice Moving Boxes, available now on your favorite streaming platform and Tomorrow Again, out February 17.
