Archive material and source history
Dan Mangan is a singer-songwriter from Vancouver who started playing local open mics as a teenager. His 2009 debut album 'Nice, Nice, Very Nice' included songs like 'About As Helpful As You Can Be Without Being Any Help At All' and established his approach to writing.
His catalog includes songs with titles that suggest a certain wry, observational quality, like 'Pretty Good Joke' and 'You Silly Git.' Other tracks, such as 'Regarding Death And Dying' and 'Race To The Bottom,' point toward the kind of heavier themes he sometimes addresses.
In 2011, Mangan was diagnosed with leukemia and underwent treatment. He has also been vocal about political issues, including criticizing the Canadian government's treatment of Indigenous peoples in 2017. His later albums include 'Club Meds' and 'More or Less.'
