Mano's Daughter - What's A Girl Supposed To Do by Mano's Daughter

<CENTER><h3>"Mano's Daughter do 10-tonne synth pop impeccably..." - <b>The 405</b></h3></CENTER>

<b>Mano’s Daughter</b> return with their second EP <b><i>Shiver</b></i>, due for release on <b>11th August 2014</b>. The London based band return following their debut EP <i>Smart</i>, which received high praise online from the likes of <b>The 405</b>, <b>Artrocker</b>, <b>Contactmusic</b> and <b>God Is In The TV</b>. 

With this latest EP, Mano’s Daughter present five perfectly formed, intelligent synth pop tracks that move in a darker direction from their debut effort. ‘What’s A Girl Supposed To Do’ unravels slowly crescendoing into a massive, flourishing chorus that demonstrates front woman Sarah Carter’s powerful, soulful vocals. The song is about a girl trying to be the right person but stuck in the wrong relationship, based on a tragic love story. ‘Wheels’ is a cross between <b>Foxes</b> and <b>Lorde</b>, however, ‘Little Heart’ and ‘This House’ are completely stripped-down, lounge like and seductive - exhibiting the band’s different facets. Musically, the band are taking us on their own personal journey as they stretch their own boundaries, especially with closing track ‘You’. It’s an 8-minute epic that mirrors the shimmering melancholy of <b>MS MR</b>. Each song on the EP is Mano’s Daughter’s take on love and relationships but the tragic side of love that teaches us lessons and shows us who we need to be.

Consisting of <b>Sarah Carter</b> (Vocals), <b>Matthias Garrick</b> (Synths, programming) and <b>Dan See</b> (Drums), the London based band are one of the most hardworking on the scene and with influences ranging from <b>Bon Iver</b> to <b>Moloko</b>, Mano’s Daughter put their songs at the heart of their identity, spinning epic lyrical stories that paint a picture of what it’s like to be at the heart and soul of the band as they sonically wear their hearts on their sleeves.

<b><i>Shiver</b></i> is released on <b>11th August 2014</b> via <b>Smart & Shiver Records</b>.
