- About the band/artist
- Barbara Manning is considered one of the leaders of the independent rock scene. During her multi-album career, beginning in Northern California with the highly acclaimed neo-psychedelic group 28th Day; San Francisco's semi-legendary edgy pop band, World of Pooh; Matador recording artist, SF Seals; her numerous solo albums, and now with the power trio, The Go-Luckys!, Manning has consistently collected praise from respected and cutting edge magazines as well as her own peers. In 1992, Rolling Stone picked Barbara as one of the year's most important new artists; Spin magazine declared her 1995 album with the SF Seals, Truth Walks In Sleepy Shadows, the 8th best album of the year; in 1996, Germany's Spex magazine's Reader's Poll voted her among the 10 best female musicians; the French music industry magazine, Les Inrockupibles, gave an entire page review of her 1998 album solo album 1212; and the European Musik Express has applauded her last several albums with the highest marks. Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore proclaimed her one of San Francisco's finest poets. She is referenced in several current music guides, such as Spin's Guide to Alternative Rock, Virgins' Guide to Indie Rock and New Wave, Rolling Stone's Women in Rock, and Music USA, among others. Barbara also won a coveted Bay Area Music Award (BAMMY) in 1995 for the best independent rock album.
Barbara has played worldwide with such rock notables as Yo La Tengo, Giant Sand, Pavement, Calexico, the Replacements, Richie Havens, Donovan, Television Personalities, Stuart Moxham (Young Marble Giants), Jon Langford (Mekons), Faust, Urge Overkill, Gary Lucas (Captain Beefheart), and Sonic Youth. New Zealand's most admired musicians, the Clean, the Tall Dwarfs, the Verlaines and the 3D's, collaborated with her as band mates while touring and recording 1999's In New Zealand.
While touring solo in Europe, Barbara met the young twin brothers who were the answer to her dream for an energized and committed rock band. Half Italian and half German, but 100% music fanatics, Fabrizio Steinbach (guitar, bass) and Flavio Steinbach (drums, percussion) formed her band the Go-Luckys! and have added renewed energy and enthusiasm to Barbara's music. The new full-length album You Should Know By Now, released by Innerstate Records, is an all original 10 song turbo-charged rocket blast into soothing outer space.
