Vancouver based singer songwriter Dan Mangan is set to release his new album Oh Fortune, as well as a US tour in support of the album. Mangan’s sound is that of sincerity, and on this album a sense of increased maturity. The current offering is his title track “Oh Fortune,” which shines with his gravelly voice and some understated musical arrangements that grow in complexity as the song goes on. Its beautiful, emotionally driven, and if its any indication of the whole album, I think it will be a great success.
Oh Fortune (released 9/27 on Arts & Crafts) is available for Pre-Order along with a download of the title track from the album on Dan Mangan’s website here.
