Mankind 'Home Away From Home' Tour

Gothic Rockers Mankind make their mainland Aus debut at on their “Home Away from Home” Tour. Latest single “HOME” is an ode to our urge for something to call home, a place to be, a people to be with, an external or internal sense of belonging and safety that makes us all human.

Joining them are hometown Gothic rockers Mantis and The Prayer & new Post-punk act, Blood In The Champagne.

Mankind is an exciting, melodic Gothic rock/post-punk project from NW Tas created by multi-instrumentalist Dan Cooper. Effect laden, melodic bass lines are pushed to the fore as the lead instrument while rhythmic tom patterns and funk inspired big beats couple with harmonic droning synths to fill out the soundscape. Lyrics with a dark analysis of everyday life complete a truly hypnotic Gothic pop sound. Influences ranging from Joy Division, Jane’s Addiction, Type O Negative, NiN, Stone Roses and Regurgitator combine with the live bands strong visual look and exciting stage presence to create a powerful, energetically delivered live presentation guaranteed to entertain.

Mamma Chen’s acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, the true owners of the land that we live and operate on. We would like to pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
