Spirit Down

‘Spirit Down’ is the title track and lead single taken from Our Man in Berlin’s forthcoming sophomore EP. Previous releases (including latest single ‘Molière’) have seen the band tour the country several times, making new fans at each show. At home the band have received recognition & airplay from Triple J, Triple J Unearthed, 4ZZZ, FBI, RRR, RTR, and many other community radio stations. Abroad, airplay has come from College stations in the UK, USA, Greece and on German radio station FluxFM. A considerable online following has amassed through substantial Soundcloud plays in excess of 120,000 and via hugely positive blog reviews that have come in thick & fast from the likes of: IndieShuffle, Hilly Dilly, Stereofox, BitCandy, Hype Machine, Pilerats, PressPlayUK, TheMusicNinja and more.

The song itself is a scattered stream of consciousness which in hindsight seems to address many of the underlying issues lead singer Haydn Mansell has had with a close family member who suffers from mental illness.

Perth outfit Our Man in Berlin will be performing 4 showcases at the prestigious Music Matters Live festival in Singapore in May this year, followed by a performance at the State of The Art festival in Perth, along with the likes of Birds of Tokyo, You Am I and Sable.

The band will also embark on a national tour for the ‘Spirit Down’ EP (due out June 19) in July with dates TBA.
