WHO: MGMT [[myspace // website // last.fm]]

WHAT: MGMT (formerly known as The Management) is an American musical group based in Brooklyn, New York consisting of Ben Goldwasser and Andrew VanWyngarden. Goldwasser and VanWyngarden formed the band while attending Wesleyan University during their freshman year in December 2002. They experimented with noise rock and electronica before settling on what David Marchese of Spin magazine calls “their current brand of shape-shifting psychedelic pop.” They graduated in 2005 and toured extensively in support of the Time To Pretend EP, opening for Of Montreal. In the fall of 2006, Steve Lillywhite signed MGMT to a six-figure, four album deal with Sony/Columbia Records. The duo recorded with Flaming Lips music producer Dave Fridmann in 2007 for their major label debut, Oracular Spectacular. MGMT, now a five-piece live touring band, opened for Of Montreal on tour in fall 2007. [wiki]
