Mancini is one of the hottest new synth-pop bands to hit the British pop scene this year. Their debut single Up Country is a sleek and stylish tune that fuses rock and electro with a solid melodic hook. The single was produced by Jagz Kooner who put his soundboard savvy to good use for Mancini and created a mature, polished sound. Important part of Mancini's appeal is the seductive appearance of front woman Iraina Mancini who is a freakishly delicious hybrid of Garbage's Shirley Manson and classic '60s beauty Brigitte Bardot.
