Manatree

Richmond, VA’s Manatree make catchy indie rock that toes the line between a garage band and one with more pop-oriented goals in mind. They sound like the kind of band that might’ve been buzzy around the same time Tokyo Police Club was, but it wasn’t until a couple years later that these young guns even formed. They got together as middle schoolers in 2009 under the name Herro Sugar (good call changing that one, guys), and now six years, a new name, and a new drummer later, they’re ready to put out their debut LP. It’s self-titled, will be out July 31 via EggHunt Records, and we’ve got the premiere of new single “Something.” You can listen to that below.

Manatree also have shows coming up, including two in NYC. They play here on July 27 at Cameo and July 31 at Aviv with other bands TBA. All dates are listed below.
