Bananner Man: “Banana Lands”


Listen Later

Bannaner Man was born in the Cavendish Islands in the rarely explored Citric Sea. After splitting for Corpus Christi, he found himself in Austin, busking on 6th Street before playing bass for Austin notables Magna Carda and Los Coast. After becoming a Dad, Bananner Man took pity on put-upon parents forced to listen to emetic, saccharine songs made to delight children and inch parents towards the nearest cliff. The result is akin to The Bug Club collabing on early Gorillaz songs: lyrics that are silly and fun but clever set to chill, earwormy electronic beats.

Bananner Man opens Rock the Park tonight, and not only do the songs pair well with peanut butter and toast, but also with the lo-fi bedroom pop beats of tonight’s headliner, Dorio.

Rock the Park is sponsored by Dell Children’s Medical Center, a part of Ascension Seton.
