Postcards & Daydreaming is the debut album from multiple JUNO Award-winning singer-songwriter Dan Mangan. Originally released independently in 2005, the album showcases a young artist with a sharp lyrical talent and undeniable ear for melody years before becoming one of Canada's most beloved songwriters. In hindsight, the album demonstrates a transparent rawness of Mangan’s youthfulness and potential as a budding writer and performer. Subtle and stripped-down at times, but with enough sonic detail to keep the listeners guessing, the songs range from somber and melancholic folk, to 7-minute long chamber pop ballads. Featuring long-time fan favourites "Journal Of A Narcoleptic" and "So Much For Everyone," Postcards & Daydreaming is an essential release in a storied and dynamic career.
