Mantler - "Childman" - SXSW 2010 Showcasing Artist

Originally a home-recording project, Mantler (Chris A. Cummings) has
in recent years become a regular presence on the Toronto live music
scene. Usually seen playing a wurlitzer electric piano accompanied by
a 1970s Rhythm Ace drum machine, Mantler has made many fans among
Toronto's music community.

Mantler has released three albums DOIN I T ALL (2000, Le Systeme
Records), SADISFACTION (2002, Tomlab Records) and LANDAU (2004, Tomlab Records). His fourth album MONODY will be released in April 2010 on Tomlab Records, Tin Angel Records and Blocks Recording Club.
