THE WORLD CAFE
Aimee Mann has been through her share of musical groups, but with a move towards a solo career has highlighted her talent 
emerged as one of the most insightful female singer-songwriters still making music. In the ’80s Mann dropped out of Berklee College of Music to sing for various bands, most notably the punk group Young Snakes as well as ‘Til Tuesday. The now acoustic pop-rocker incorporates a raw quality to her music, extracting over processed sound in favor of traditional instruments of acoustic bass, guitar, and piano. Personal themes and life experiences run throughout her lyrics, which range from past relationships of heartbreak to exploring Virginia carnivals. Each track on the album is influenced by the lives of dark and eccentric characters which saturate the introspective lyrics. Mann’s seventh solo album Smilers will be released this year under her own Superego label.
