Mantodea

got stoned and mixed really old records for half an hour

Bio:
"A band with attitude and love for their parents' records collection"

The band met on the School of Music in Rotterdam in 2011 and found collective love for the psychedelic rock scene from the 60s/70s. Heavily influenced by The Doors, Jimi Hendrix & even Funkadelic, they've created their own sound. Fuzzy tones and a growling Hammond combined with loud bright vocals by Miles-Lee.

After months of writing and performing, the band recorded their first 'self-titled' EP in march 2013 and released it in november of the same year with a huge release party in 'De Zwarte Ruiter', The Hague. The EP was well received with the public, as with the critics. The group played more gigs since the record came out, and played big festivals like Parkpop and Baroeg Open Air. 
In the summer of 2014, the band organized their first tour through Portugal and Spain and were praised by their high energy live performances. 
In september 2014 the band released their first 7" vinyl single of their song 'Take It While You Can'.
