About The Manatees

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My earliest musical memory is picking up my Dad's old acoustic guitar when I was about 10 years old, and it feeling absolutely huge on me. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Bob Dylan, The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan Kings of Leon, Come Around Sundown Lana Del Rey, Ultraviolence All three of these records absolutely transport me to a different place. Each one is an escape, something that is so important about music for me. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Buttercup” This was a significant step into a slightly different direction for us as a band, one that we're still inspired by to this day, so it's really special to us. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Our first play and interview on BBC Radio 1 was so special for us. We've grown up idolising the playlists on those stations, to listen back to us on it was super special. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Lots of stuff, touring America is a huge one. We played SXSW in Austin last year and fell in love with it out there, we can't wait to go back.
