Singer/songwriter Joe Mannix started off doing rock-friendly stuff in the late '90s with his punk-pop outfit, Oral Groove, and the more rootsy Mannix. Several years later and a little bit older and wiser, Joe Mannix went solo with a brand new bag -- a folk-tinged sound, that is. In mid-2002, Mannix left his New York City abode for the countryside of Hamilton, Ontario, to work with engineer Glenn Marshall and Dave Rave of Agnelli Rave. His debut album as a solo artist, White Flag, appeared on Bongobeat in summer 2003. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi
