"Hailing from the south-shore Long Island town of Massapequa, Gamblers have always been aware of the ever-looming influence of New York City, but they may as well be coming from another world. The band’s upcoming debut album Small World (out 9/25 via Symphonic) showcases the unique perspective one develops when viewing things as both an insider and an outsider. After cutting his teeth touring with DIY alt-rock bands in high school, bandleader/producer Michael McManus spent practically every waking minute that he wasn’t in class holed up in his Hunter College dorm room crafting the unique hip hop production style that paved the way for collaborations with Meek Mill and Heems, as well as musical contributions to Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown and Viceland’s Gaycation. With Gamblers, McManus marries the beatmaking sensibility of hip hop to the songcraft and jamming-in-a-room spirit of an indie rock band. Even in its brightest moments, Small World is replete with references to addiction, mental illness, corruption and violence, with cutting insights always lurking in the shadows between McManus’ seemingly innocuous wordplay. With one ear to the pulse of Long Island’s trash-strewn cultural landscape and the other focused on the human condition itself, McManus tucks his layers of meaning into lyrics that on first glance appear rather straightforward. The band’s sunny hooks may evoke The Beach Boys, but much darker things tend to wash up on the south shore, much as they do on the shores of our own conscience."

lyrics

You and me, we're bound to be together, together
You and me, we're bound to be together, forever
I could see it in your eyes, that you've never had a love like this before
Cause' you and me, we're bound to be together, together, forever, together

So in love, a smile on my face the moment I step outside
It's alive, and spinning out of control
Don't be shy, I know we both got the same things on our mind
We're alive, in a way that I've never known, and I never wanna let you go
With you I feel right at home

Gamblers New York

For Gamblers leader Michael McManus, a few too many brushes with mortality have him feeling like there’s a great force threatening to pound him literally into dust. Pulverizer however isn't a dark album. Gamblers serve a rousing fusion of organic and electronic sounds. It's the ultimate afterparty album that hasn’t entirely left the celebration behind. ... more
