Manchester Orchestra is an indie rock band from Atlanta, Georgia. They are currently signed to Favorite Gentlemen Recordings.
History
Manchester Orchestra’s beginnings lie in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia where during Hull’s junior year in high school, his talent as a songwriter was garnering the attention of fans and industry types alike. Singer/guitarist/songwriter Andy Hull opted to be home schooled his senior year of high school, so he could focus on writing and recording an album. [1]
On June 28, 2007 Manchester Orchestra announced via myspace bulletin, "we are very excited to announce some very awesome news... there have been some rumors floating around about the fact that we have "signed" a record deal. we have waited until it was official to announce anything but we are very happy to say that our label "Favorite Gentlemen Recordings" has partnered with SONY label "Canvasback" in order to release our record into more stores. "I'm Like A Virgin Losing A Child" will be put through RED distribution and will be found in music stores on July 24th, 2007". [citation needed]
Early Times
Earlier in their career the band recorded an album entitled "Nobody Sings Anymore", it was never released due to the shift in its musical direction and personnel changes undergone following its recording. They say of it: "The band that made the record was different to the band now", although they have stated that it may be released at some point in the future. Some of the tracks written for the album were instead released on the You Brainstorm, But Brilliance Needs A Good Editor E.P. [2]
