Hamilton's Wax Mannequin — the moniker of indie rock scene staple Chris Adeney — has announced the forthcoming release of his seventh solo album and shared lead single "The Obelisk."
The Red Brain is due early next year via Coax. It follows 2018's Have a New Name.
"The Obelisk" sees Adeney set the stage for the new record, which is said to be his most personal yet, detailing the singer-songwriter's feelings of alienation through coping with neurodivergence. Driven by a rollicking, folksy guitar progression, he envisions himself as a monument to not merely surviving, but thriving in a world that you don't quite feel as though you were made for.
Listen to "The Obelisk" below, where you can also see Wax Mannequin's upcoming Ontario tour dates.
Wax Mannequin 2022-2023 Tour Dates:
12/16 Hamilton, ON - Awesome Mom #6
12/17 London, ON - Brown & Dickson
01/06 Toronto, ON - Bar Orwell
