Next show: Los Angeles, Sat 31 Oct
An underground indie folk artist.
AUSTIN MANUEL was born and raised in Nashville until his Saturn Return catapulted him out to Los Angeles in 2017 between waves of grief and inspiration. Post-pandemic, Manuel started promoting shows at a small club in Atwater Village, cultivating a community of like-minded musicians around LA and beyond. He now lives in Highland Park, Los Angeles, with his wife and baby boy. He owns and operates the music venue and record store, Healing Force of the Universe, in Pasadena. Manuel released his latest album, Conception, in 2025 after many years of writing in California and then producing on trips back home to Tennessee between 2022 and 2024. The album centers around relearning his childhood, understanding his relationship to his father (d. 2017), and his transition to California.
