About Man Man


Based in Philadelphia but also spending time in New York, Man Man feature Honus Honus (vocals/synthesizer), Tiberius Lyn (drums), Clint Killingsworth (bass), and Steven Dufala (guitar/trumpet). Man Man made their album debut in 2004 with The Man in a Blue Turban with a Face, and Six Demon Bag followed in 2006. As they established themselves over the next few years, the eclectic quartet played shows with artists such as Cat Power, Adam Green, Mirah, U.S. Maple, Aereogramme, Need New Body, and Bardo Pond. For 2008’s Rabbit Habits and 2011’s Life Fantastic, the band attempted to take a more standard pop approach, without compromising its bizarre musical style. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi
