After going out solo for some time under the name, former Smiths' guitarist Johnny Marr's son Nile Marr is now part of a Man Made three-piece (with Scott Strange and Callum Rogers). The Manchester outfit will release their brand new single ‘TV Broke My Brain’ this September, as well as performing at both Reading and Leeds festivals next month.
‘TV Broke My Brain’, an instantly likeable slice of indie-rock that shows the band pushing into exciting new frontiers. The band’s time spent in the Pacific North West, as well as their native Manchester, has also seen their influences widen to include American guitar bands from the Portland, Seattle, and Olympia scenes, as well as the rainy atmosphere of their hometown.
‘TV Broke My Brain’ will be released this September. A full UK tour and high profile support dates will also be announced in the coming weeks, with Man Made’s debut album set for release in early 2015.
