Mega Mango

Philadelphia-based college band Mega Mango was forced into a pandemic-related hiatus in 2020, but returned stronger than ever.

Its most recent EP Fun and Games—which has been sporadically releasing for the last year or so—has tracks literally named after board games, but tackles an apology for previous unsettling behavior, endless exhaustion, and resisting the urge to say something one might regret in the long run.

Fellow indie-pop bands Taverns and Peace Cult open.

Tickets to see Mega Mango play Hooch and Hive in Tampa on Sunday, March 26 are still available for $25.
