Being Somewhere

Dan Mangan • 9 songs • 31 min

Being Somewhere is the seventh studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Dan Mangan, released October 28, 2022 on Arts & Crafts Productions. The album was produced and recorded remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with Mangan stating that "The hard part was waiting; sometimes it took six weeks to resolve an issue that could have taken twenty minutes had we been together in a room. But Drew [Brown]'s dedication and talent cannot be understated, and this music doesn't sound like anything else I'm hearing these days." The album was preceded by the preview singles "In Your Corner", a tribute to Frightened Rabbit bandleader Scott Hutchison following his death in 2018, in April, and "Fire Escape", the video for which starred actor Steven Ogg as a personification of a self-critical inner voice taunting and tormenting Mangan, in July. A third preview song, "Just Know It", was released concurrently with the announcement of the album.
