"Guitar Poetry", Máni's debut album on ACT, showcases a passionate and skilled instrumentalist, not only for his refined and subtle compositions, but also for his work on the music. Máni brings his passion and expertise not only to his compositions, but also to his vivid and fluid improvisations, and he combines all this with the clarity and straightforwardness of a highly skilled singer-songwriter. Mikáel Mani describes his music as a blend of jazz, rock and impressionism. Yet, he never loses sight of being both accessible and sophisticated. He doesn't just stimulate listeners intellectually, he also knows how to go straight for the emotions.
