This is a re-make of an old song of mine called Harnch. It'll be released on my upcoming solo album, "Ok, but why?" Features Gretchen Menn on guitar, Morgan Ågren on drums, and Michael Manring on bass

Here's a new single called "Brex." I don't know why it's called that. It's a word I made up 10 years ago when I wrote the song.

Morgan Ågren on drums
Paul Hanson on electric bassoon
Michael Manring on bass
Anthony Garone on guitar

Lots of amazing new music in 2020. Here’s our list of the best releases.

A song by Anthony Garone dedicated to his love of Gentle Giant and Jethro Tull. Performed with Michael Manring, Morgan Ågren, and Jake Ineck.

Join us for a live interview with Michael Manring about his excellent new record, "Small Moments." Listen and purchase here: https://michaelmanring1.bandcamp.com/album/small-moments

We are SUPER excited to present our first house concert featuring Michael Manring. There's over an hour of concert footage in the for-purchase video and then another 18 minutes of free promo content in this video, including a performance of "What If" by Steve Morse with the Dixie Dregs' own Andy West!

Michael Manring and Joe Zon got together and designed an incredible work of art of an instrument called the Zon Michael Manring Hyperbass. It's got a 3-octave fretboard, quadrophonic pickup, 5-output electronics, Hipshot Extenders, a multi-tuning bridge, etc. Amazing. And he does a great demo of the instrument at the end.

Michael Manring is an extraterrestrial trailblazer on the bass guitar. He is known for playing an instrument he designed called the Hyperbass, which allows him to change the tuning of his instrument while he plays. He is a student of Jaco Pastorius and worked closely with Michael Hedges through the 1980s and 1990s.

We sit down with Michael for more than an hour and talk about his musical background and his approach to music.
