 “Canadian acoustic troubadour invents post-folk…a great artistic leap…Mangan serves up the welcome alternative” Q Magazine

“Packed with grandiose Grizzly Bear harmonies (highlight – ‘Rows of Houses’) and slow-building, orchestral touches (‘How Darwinian’), Oh Fortune spans a wider spectrum than its folky core might imply, adding a grandeur and a refreshing cerebral spin to proceedings.” NME

“Oh Fortune is not only going to blow plenty of minds when it hits the streets, it’s going to be remembered as one of the best, most daring records of the year.” The Georgia Straight

“Oh Fortune is an excellent record, expansive in scope yet efficiently delivered and both musically and lyrically rich. Oh Fortune confirms Mangan as one of this country’s best new songwriters.” Chromewaves

“This is a perspective that strikes, simply, as wise, a fact that is really what separates Mangan from similarly scruffy singer-songwriters, to say nothing of pop musicians in general: Oh Fortune is one of the rare albums that is a kind of education in how to be human in a strange and — as its namesake amply demonstrates — harsh world.”  The National Post – Album Of The Week
