Ex-Mavis's Frontman Drops New EP

Staff Writer

All proceeds go to charity

Matt Doll, founding member of '90s indie rockers The Mavis's, has released a new EP with post-Mavis's band The Blow Waves.

The Island EP features four new tracks, with the band donating "100% of all sales" to Echo International — a group attempting to build schools and promote the importance of education in poverty-stricken parts of Thailand.

The EP, featuring the tracks Monopoly, Love In England, West Of Mars and Enchained, is available through The Blow Waves' Bandcamp page.

Videos have also been created for two of the tracks on the EP — Monopoly and Enchained. Watch Monopoly below and head here for Enchained.
