AIMEE MANN

With special guests

FRIDAY, AUGUST 5TH

COMMODORE BALLROOM

868 GRANVILLE STREET

COMMODORE BALLROOM INFOLINE: 739-SHOW

DOORS: 8:00 pm SHOW: 9:30 pm

"The knockout punch is the one you never see coming," says Aimee Mann of her new album, The Forgotten Arm. A concept record, Mann's fifth solo disc (after taking her new wave pop band 'til Tuesday to the top of the charts in the '80s) follows a man and woman from when they meet at the Virginia State Fair to a road trip that eventually ends in a gambling town.

With Mann's keen, novelistic eye for detail and superb ear for melody, The Forgotten Arm may be her best work yet-pretty impressive considering records like Whatever, I'm With Stupid, and the superb Lost in Space are all stunning examples of songwriting craft and human emotion.

With The Forgotten Arm, Mann has fashioned her most straightforward guitar-rock record yet, while calling on formative influences like the Band, early Elton John and Rod Stewart, and British glam-rockers Mott the Hoople.

A vivid and dynamic performer with a loyal local following, Aimee Mann's upcoming show is one knockout punch that comes with advance warning.

Don't miss Aimee Mann live at the Commodore Ballroom on Friday, August 5th with special guests.
