Biography

Best Mann (the alter-ego of Vermont-based producer, composer, multi-instrumentalist, and Prince-devotee Nate Mondschein) is an obsessive over small moments. Merging Art-Rock aesthetics, Hip-Hop-adjacent pocket, and Folk-style storytelling, Nate brings his diverse influences to bear in the form of lush, groove-heavy arrangements encircling observational, evocative lyrics. He likes telling stories about family, and anxiety, and love, and ghosts, and things he can’t remember as well as he wishes he could. He does a lot of this on his self-produced debut album under the Best Mann moniker, …And the Sky. 
 The lead single off ...And the Sky, "MCO," was released on August 30th, 2019, and as since been featured on Spotify playlists including For the Love of Bands, Modern Trax: Indie & Alt, Inside Alt Vibes, Indie Deep Cuts, and more. 
 Beyond Best Mann, Nate’s work as a songwriter, producer, and performer has been featured in a variety of publications, including The New Yorker, Afropunk, NEPR, Okayplayer, The Deli Magazine, and many more.
