They describe themselves as “Halloween pop” and their debut album, due out January 27 on Bleed101 Records, is Literally Weird. Don’t let that scare you, though. Bat Manors, hailing from Provo, Utah, is a perfectly lovely and quite dreamy chamber pop and folk ensemble consisting of several dozen musicians. Ok, maybe not quite that many, but at least a sextet, with others popping in and out. It begins with singer-songwriter Adam Klopp, joined by his many friends (up to a dozen at their live shows). Oh, the softly strummed acoustic guitar, the lap steel, the pretty strings! The gently harmonizing vocals! Their debut covers such heady topics as “love, sexual discovery, and losing your faith in one of the most faith-driven communities in the world.” The first single is “Manifest Destiny.”
Coming Soon!
