A departure from the acoustic format of"Frankie Said","Short Circuit" is electrified and features acoustic guitar fed through a multitude of processors and tubes emerging as something wholly different, wild and alive. Says Manners:"It's so 3-D! It's exciting, 'cause you're on the edge. You feel that body pump, the strings have life, they absolutely hum with vibration, the guitar, like a little animal got teeth, watch out! thing can bite! and you're gonna ride it." Short Circuit features 12 new post-modern roots-rock songs dug from the Elvis Costello meets John Hiatt meets Tom Waits vein.Check out Jon's website: http://www.jonmanners.com
