Dan Mangan, the celebrated Canadian singer-songwriter kicks off his tour with three special, intimate US shows in May 2023, starting at the Dynasty Typewriter in Los Angeles, then at the Madame Lou's in Seattle, and at the Doug Fir Lounge in Portland before travelling to the United Kingdom in June and then going back to Canada for his major 5-month tour all over his homeland country.

Dan will be promoting his latest album, ‘Being Somewhere’, which is available on CD, Vynil, and MP3 download. The album is marked by Mangan’s singular wit and a respectful deference to the quagmire of existence. 

 “I wanted this album to feel like the inside crook of a familiar elbow on the nape of your neck, a comforting embrace.” says Mangan, “These songs are tenderhearted and unfurl like an overdue conversation with a dear friend. They essentially lay out where we’re at, how I’m doing, and how I think I can help."
