I imagine that by now virtually everyone in Canada knows who this is, but, just in case, Dan Mangan is an indie musician from Vancouver who has had a lot of well-deserved success in the past year or so. Yesterday I noticed he was added to the Polaris Music Prize long list; he's been one of my favorite artists for a long time and I was wondering what people here think of him. Below are links to two of my favorite songs of his.
