Acclaimed singer-songwriter Aimee Mann has announced a headline show at the National Stadium in Dublin this Autumn.
Taking place on Saturday, October 28th, Aimee Mann will come to Ireland this year in support of her first new solo album in five years, Mental Illness.
Speaking about the title of her latest record Mann explains: “It came from a friend of mine asking mewhat the record was about. And I said, ‘Oh, you know me — theusual songs about mental illness.’ He said, ‘You should call it Mental Illness!’ I said, ‘I think I will.’” And thus, over the course of a few short seconds, a classic album title was born. “I always probably have a little bit of gallows humour,” Mann says, “and I would hope that people see there’s a little bit of that interspersedin there. I mean, calling it Mental Illness makes me laugh, because it is true, butit’s so blunt that it’s funny.”
