CMU Approved
Approved: MNDR
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 4 November 2010
Amanda Warner goes by the name MNDR. As an abbreviation it doesn’t really work, but this does ensure that every time I see it I say it at least three times to myself in my head as my brain attempts to process it. Therefore, as a stage name, I’d say it’s a winner. She self-released an EP, entitled ‘EPE’, in April, which generated some attention, but the real boost to her career was providing vocals on the first single from Mark Ronson’s ‘Record Collection’ album, ‘Bang Bang Bang’ alongside Q-Tip.
Later this month, 24 Nov to be exact, MNDR will be playing a one-off show at XOYO in London. Here’s how she describes the night: “This show will include some visual adventures in lights and we plan on turning the club into chrome tears. Our bones will light up”. So, good. To warm your bones up a bit first, she’s giving away a free download of ‘Caligula’, a track from her in-production debut album on her blog. If you root around there, you’ll also find a link to her MySpace page, which is playing the ‘EPE’ EP.
