All this week, KUTX highlights the “Ones To Watch”–seven must-see artists at SXSW 2015.
After winning two Juno Awards–Canada’s version of the Grammys–Dan Mangan felt like he needed a break. He reworked his sound, moving from a folk influence to electronic, and he recruited a new band built from Vancouver’s jazz scene. Club Meds is the result, the first album billed under the name Dan Mangan + Blacksmith. Listen to their profile and catch their shows below.
