Manatee Commune and Cassandra Violet’s dreamy and gentle original “Famous” certainly feels like it’s built on warmth and reassurance. The two aimed to create a feeling of happy childhood memories through the house-inspired production – the two nail the vibe as a combination of cloudy atmosphere’s, pop-influence, and a collective of bells and whistles coming your way. This is far from Manatee Commune’s first go ahead, the solo artist has played SXSW, Bonnaroo, What The Festival, Decibel, Bumbershoot and Capitol Hill Block Party. Along with this, he’s toured with Odesza, Slow Magic, Emancipator and Blockhead.
Grant Eadie, known as Manatee Commune, has this to share regarding “Famous:”
“I wanted to capture that feeling every kid has when they are alone, rocking out to their favorite song, fantasizing about becoming rockstars or celebrities. To illustrate that titillating feeling when not only have you made it to the top but are also envied by every person you’ve known since childhood. And how that ‘feeling’ is misunderstood and really pans out if/when you actually achieve (any modicum) of success.”
