Fresh off her tour with Duran Duran, New York via Bay Area artist MNDR will be opening for Shiny Toy Guns for their upcoming Fall tour - full list of dates below! MNDR will be touring in support of her critically acclaimed debut full-length Feed Me Diamonds (Ultra Music). Produced by Peter Wade and mixed by Tony Maserati (Beyoncé, Lady Gaga), the album serves as an ode to heartbreak and decadence with nods to MNDR's pop sensibilities, love of early house, minimal techno and IDM. Earlier this week, MNDR released a "Faster Horses" remix album featuring tracks by Jeffrey Jerusalem, Ken Loi, Kill FM, Deorro, Nobody Beats The Drum,  AIMES, and HedNorton - listen via iTunes HERE<http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/faster-horses-remixes/id555396400>.

MNDR will also be one of the faces in fashion-retailer Uniqlo's "Faces of the People Campaign", featuring diverse innovators from New York and California including Joe Montana, Goapele, Leandra Medine, and Benjamin Millepied- learn more about the campaign HERE<http://www.uniqlo.com/us/corp/pressrelease/2012/08/uniqlo_announces_the_faces_of.html>.

After jumping on the scene two years ago, MNDR has been impressing fans and critics alike with her swoon worthy pop. MNDR was profiled as an Artist to Watch in SPIN, Billboard, Q, and NME magazines, and performed on Letterman, Kimmel, Carson Daly, Jonathan Ross and Jools Holland's TV shows - all as an unsigned artist. MNDR has opened for Miike Snow, Massive Attack, Chromeo, Yacht, The Shins, The Ting Tings, and many others.  The project has earned a 2011 MTV O Awards nomination for "Best Web Born Artist" and won the 2012 award for "Most Innovative Solo Performer." Amanda brings with her the stylings of a polished performance that is simultaneously infused with fresh vigor and panache. MNDR refines catchy electro beats with an innovative rawness, stripping away surplus noise to leave an inventive sound that will both engage and enthrall audiences.

Media praise for MNDR:

"MNDR's debut is a sweaty work-out that mixes chilly electro beats that soundtracked summertime in the 1980s." -Rolling Stone

"Diamonds is slickly produced, gleaming with jaunty synths, hyper-catchy melodies, and cacophonous beats." -Nylon

"...a debut full-length that lives up to its anticipation." -Filter Magazine

"...a pulsating electronic pop manifesto with vividly layered production that peaks with surprising clarity, resulting in some of the catchiest hooks we've heard in a long time."- V Magazine.com

"...tailor-made for pop stardom - great voice, great style, and a knack for writing great, smart pop songs." -Stereogum

"She uses her sultry skills to pull you into her catch pop web like a spider. It's truly something worth hearing." -Consequence of Sound

"Simple and hook-riddled, each track gives club-friendly musician Amanda Warner the chance to flaunt her vocal prowess over smooth and electrifying synths." - CMJ.com
