Dan Mangan has shared a new single called “Say When”.

Co-written with Lowell, Mangan described the making of the track, saying, “We were talking about how no matter how grateful you are for wherever you’re at in your artist journey, you still want more.”

He continued, “It always feels like a truly big break is just around the corner, but that the obstacles between you and that break are ambiguous and ephemeral. It’s like you’re trying so hard and you’re stuck waiting for luck to come and anoint you. The song is totally earnest, but it’s also self-aware… like, I understand how ridiculous and self-indulgent it is to want cheerleaders to carry you through your hometown.”

Mangan released his latest album Being Somewhere in October 2022. The record has made the 2023 Polaris Music Prize Shortlist. In September, Mangan will hit the road for his Going Somewhere tour with stops in Alberta, BC, and beyond.
