Roger Joseph Manning, Jr.
From his early beginnings in the band Beatnik Beatch, followed by the success and cult following with his power-pop band Jellyfish in the early 90’s, Roger Joseph Manning, Jr. continues to explore and create music that contains musical excellence and well-crafted lyrics. The past three decades have been filled with a variety of projects for Roger, from Imperial Drag, to TV Eyes, to several solo and collaborative album projects - not to mention lending his talents to artists like Beck, Jay-Z, Blink 182, and the legendary Johnny Cash. Manning’s latest project reunites two of his past Jellyfish bandmates to form The Lickerish Quartet. The power-pop trio has just released their first, four song EP titled “Threesome Vol. 1”, which was released on May 15 and carries on the incredible musicianship and songwriting vibe that Jellyfish fans have grown accustomed to.
