Description:

Maneka ist ein musikalisches Projekt von Devin McKnight. Er trat bereits mit Projekten wie Grass Is Green und vor allem als Gitarrist in Speedy Ortiz in Erscheinung. Er verließ Speedy Ortiz im Jahr 2017 mit der Absicht, seine Karriere als Songwriter aufzubauen und veröffentlichte schnell seine 1. EP unter dem Namen Maneka, die von Publikationen wie Billboard, Stereogum und DIY gelobt wurde. Jetzt veröffentlicht McKnight sein Debütalbum als Maneka. Devin ist eine zutiefst persönliche Veröffentlichung, die die musikalische Erfahrung eines der auffälligeren und facettenreicheren Interpreten zusammenfasst, die derzeit Gitarrenmusik machen. Das Album enthält Musik der Genres Grindcore, Jazz, Shoegaze, Hip Hop, New Wave und Post-Punk und ist eine Feier der Identität von McKnight als Musiker und Mensch. Thematisch greift das Album tief in das entsprechende Gebiet von McKnights Erfahrung als Musiker und Farbiger in Amerika ein und erkundet eine Perspektive, die im Indierock selten vertreten ist. -

Maneka is the musical project of Devin McKnight. A familiar presence in music circles for much of the past decade, McKnight has made appearances in projects like Grass Is Green and most prominently as the guitarist in Speedy Ortiz, with his lead parts underpinning their 2015 breakthrough 'Foil Deer'. He amicably left Speedy Ortiz in 2017 with the intention of developing his own voice as a songwriter, and quickly released his first EP under the Maneka name which was praised by publications like Billboard, Stereogum and DIY. Now McKnight is releasing his debut full length as Maneka, an album entitled 'Devin', a deeply personal release that encapsulate the musical experience of one of the more distinct and multifaceted performers currently making guitar music. The album, which nods to genres as varied as grindcore, jazz, shoegaze, hip hop, new wave and post-punk, is a celebration of McKnight's identity as a musician and a person. Thematically the album digs deep into the corresponding territory of McKnight's experience as a musician and a person of color in America, exploring a perspective that is rarely represented in indie rock. His embrace of this thematic direction is reflective of the lessons learned over the course of his career so far. The results are consistently engaging, and surprising. The album is an incredibly personal document that succeeds in communicating, with depth, clarity, humor and emotional directness, the experiences that make Devin McKnight who he is.1. Oopdie Oop2.
