““Bourbon Holiday” is an EP that explores feeling helpless, hopeless, and hung over, pretty much in that order.  His sound is strong and simple, reflecting his family’s musical roots; cousin Carl Mann recorded for Sun Records in the 1950s.”

“Mann knows how to structure his material, he crafts songs that often acknowledge the importance of the past and pine for simple pleasures, but without nostalgia or vagueness and naivete taking over.  This isn’t trying to be much more than an extended calling-card, a step forward on a long path—but Mann shows lots of promise…."
