About

Hello, my name is Ryan Mannix, and I wanted to contact you about working with the eclectic Improvisational/Indie Rock band, Lunar Ticks. They have built a word-of-mouth following across the country by selling out clubs and performing at venues such as Lincoln Hall, The Metro, and Park West. The band has had the pleasure of playing with Dogs in a Pile, Eggy, Dopapod, Pink Talking Fish, and members of Umphrey's McGee, Vulfpeck, Joe Russo's Almost Dead, Trey Anastasio Band, and Jerry Garcia Band. They have also been invited to festivals all over the country, including multiple years at Shoe Fest and Summer Camp Music Festival.

Recently Lunar Ticks have toured the country multiple times, and have moved into theater's including Park West in Chicago, The Arcada Theater in St. Charles, and The Majestic Theater in Madison, WI. The group's experimental approach has been seen and heard at specialty themed genre/cover concerts, through interactive crowd inspired improvisations, and they have even been included in an immersive art exhibit at Chicago's world famous WNDR Museum. They released 4 studio singles and 5 live compilations in 2025 with more on the way, and were included in Relix Magazine as a "cutting edge, on the verge" artist. The Ticks have also created/curated/ and run their very own local music festival called Indie Park Fest, which continued to flourish in year four. Currently, the Ticks are headed into the studio to work with lauded producer, Brian Deck, whose credits include Iron and Wine, Modest Mouse, and The Counting Crows. Lunar Ticks is looking forward to making music in 2026!

We are hoping to play your fest in 2026! Let me know if you need anything else from me. Talk soon!
