I'm a 23 year old singer/songwriter from Bromley in Kent.
I've spent the last few months preparing for my debut album 'Either Side Of Midnight' to be released (it's released on 5th May) - this has included recording the album and playing live around the UK with the likes of Scouting For Girls, Amy Macdonald, and Just Jack.
When I'm not writing, recording, touring, promoting etc.... I like to play footy in my local five-a-side team, and have the odd game of tennis.
Make sure you check out www.jackmcmanus.co.uk to download my song 'Not The Hardest Part' for free, and if you join the mailing list you'll be kept up to date with everything I'm doing.
Enjoy the free track and I'll hopefully see you on the road somewhere!
