Vocalist/songwriter Joe Mannix began doing rock-friendly stuff in the later ’90s along with his punk-pop clothing, Oral Groove, as well as the more rootsy Mannix. Many years afterwards and a bit old and wiser, Joe Mannix proceeded to go solo with a whole new handbag — a folk-tinged sound, that’s. In middle-2002, Mannix still left his NEW YORK abode for the countryside of Hamilton, Ontario, to utilize engineer Glenn Marshall and Dave Rave of Agnelli & Rave. His debut record as a single artist, Light Flag, made an appearance on Bongobeat in summer months 2003.
