Mandu
voc, AU
Singer of Rock
A.k.a. Chris Moriatis, aka Chris Morris
The elusive and mysterious Mándu arrived in Melbourne from Queensland in the early Seventies with hopes of securing a record contract. With a series of unsuccessful bands behind him, the singer had developed a new persona (Mándu) and written a peerless batch of songs that would form the basis of his extraordinary concept album To The Shores Of His Heaven. Mandu joined as vocalist in Lobby Loyde’s Southern Electric in late 1975 and recorded the classic Obsecration album before leaving on the eve of the band’s move to the UK. Mandu visited the UK in 1976 and it was soon after that he disappeared from view, apart from a short return foray with Loyde for 1980 concerts and recordings. Later he made sporadic appearances with such outfits as the mid-80s' Mandu Bandu. (from Aztec Music)
