HARRISON MANTON

Playing music and performing for as long as he can remember, Harrison is an acoustic artist, specialising in guitar and vocals. His main musical and stylistic influences are Matt Corby, Passenger, Ed Sheeran, and even various local artists such as Christopher Coleman.

The Man

“This is a song I wrote that was influenced by Passenger. This song to me, is about being content with the opportunities and gifts that you’re given, and not constantly striving for the next best thing.”

Take The Flame

“This is a song that came from a combination of Matt Corby style licks and verses. There are lots of themes running through the lyrics, but to me the main one is that you can’t let other people’s actions dictate your life. Be your own free person.”

Take My Hand

“Take my Hand – once you take away all the other layers – is a love song. But to another person, the lyrics might mean moving forward from something difficult in their life. Each to their own.”
