“Mallman's writing style is direct, clipped and staccato; his words are vivid bursts of observation, often hypnotic. The Happiness Playlist is a life-af firming and thoroughly enjoyable read.'' —BlueInk Review Writer

Chuck Klosterman describes him as “legitimately original, exclusively motivated by a desire to conquer the strange obstructions he builds inside his mind.” The Composer, songwriter, and performer has spent the last 20 years releasing albums, touring, the United States and becoming a Minneapolis music icon. His wild stage persona precedes him, but stepping back one sees a sweeping body of work. Mallman's expansive catalog of infinitely catchy and masterfully orchestrated songs has rocked the airwaves worldwide from MTV to NPR. He has been written up by critics from USA Today to Wired and NME.
