Grant Eadie, widely known as Manatee Commune, stumbled on the song "Path" while he was house sitting on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State. A misty, salt-sprayed beach walk every morning always left him feeling clean and refreshed, and it was one of these mornings that a little melody was waiting for him on the acoustic guitar as he returned from the walk. Grant says, "Path is one of those magical creative endeavors that took absolutely no effort, every part just fell into place like they had always been there."

Path

Manatee Commune - Path

Times have grown darker now
And I’m wearing a frown 
Into the shadows we fall
With no one to call

When the chains around your feet
Keep you from falling
Slumber falls on the evening street 
Do you hear thunder calling?

You hold a weary page
From an ancient letter
Read it on a broken stage
Say you could do better

When the chains around your feet
Keep you from falling
Slumber falls on the evening street 
Do you hear thunder calling?

Do You Hear Thunder Calling?

Love and Loss

"Be Human" features poetic lyrics that are painted with strong imagery, setting the stage for a plea to humankind to drop our differences and come together in a time of intense division.

Jensen grew up in eastern Washington, raised on the likes of Grand Ole Opry greats Hank Williams, Patsy Kline, and Charley Pride. Soon enough he and his cousins were performing for the family, which led naturally enough into forming bands of his own. A trip to the iconic Seattle studio The Dutchman to track a pop-punk record with producer Gary Mula (Damien Jurado) in 2000 marked his first step into the world of professional recording. 

Eventually pop-punk gave way to a broader palette of personal listening, which is very much reflected in his song writing. The guitar became his main instrument, and he explored all of its secrets broadly; from fingerpicking and folk styles to 90s grunge and alternative rock. In college, Jensen formed the funk-prog group Cadre, with whom he released the 2007 LP We Are The Media. A contingent of the group would go on to form the premier Bellingham funk band Sweet Beets. In 2012, Jensen once again teamed with Mula to record his debut solo album, Unravel the Wire, at the iconic Columbia City Theater. 

During the Covid shutdown, Jensen spent late nights writing and recording music in his basement, building what would eventually become his second solo album release Moon Time. Moon Time was released in 2022 and mixed and mastered by producer Luke Rain. The album features guest appearances by Matthew O’Toole on mandolin and Jensen’s then 3-year-old daughter, Coralie, on the closing track.
