"Spanish indie sensation the marzipan man’s debut album is such a perfect statement of casio-damaged songsmithery, orchestral twee-pop and the occasional mood-music inflections that it’s absurd they’re still a cult prospect in this country. hailing from majorca, there’s enough sun-bleached swoon to keep indie-pop fans happy.. the group seems to be comprised of a magnitude of instrumentalists and freaks who are all orchestrated by one singer / arranger who wields stuart murdochian power over his cohorts". - Rough Trade

Bio
The marzipan man lives under a tree, sharing the flat's rent with two rabbits. He very rarely comes out and spends most of his time writing stories. He found socializing difficult, so he became a puppeteer (...) but one thing was missing: the puppets. He needed ones that could sing and dance. He found some. They are playing somewhere and trying to make sense of the lyrics while singing them. Jordi is the puppet singer's name. He writes and produces the songs together with the marzipan man. The band that plays this songs live is The Marzipan Man ensemble, a mutating collective of freaks/friends, which has been playing up and down Spain during this last five years, being featured in Benicàssim Festival, Primavera Sound, Monkey Week, Faraday, Mercat de la Música viva de Vic, and has performed around England, France, Belgium and Germany. The marzipan man has two albums released so far, and three nice videoclips: "Sometimes", "Hypnotized" and "When little Johanna dances".
