After an extended hiatus from life as a solo artist, Dan Mangan found himself rejuvenated in 2018, and in the shape of More Or Less released his first solo record in some seven years. Now back in the routine, he's also found himself inspired to get back out on the road, and has announced a show at The Grand Social for the 5th of April 2019.

After having released four other albums of his own, and having toured them relentlessly, it was having a child that made the Canadian singer-songwriter take a break initially.

“I’d been touring non-stop for six consecutive years and the phone just kept ringing, but I felt my mind and body start to fail," he explained. "When we learned that we were going to have a baby, I told my manager that I wanted to take a year away from touring. I felt I’d earned it. That ‘one year’ away from the grind sort of slowly became six.”
