"Broken Man" is really special to TEN FOOT WIZARD, and the song also happens to be very topical in the light of the current #BlackLivesMatter protests. Frontman Gary Harkin explains: "The song is about being pushed to the edge, being taken to breaking point, and finally snapping. Similar to the protagonists in 'Taxi Driver' and 'Falling Down'. Everyone has their limit, and when you find it, it can be scary. We live in a time in which a lot of people are marginalised, and the frustration and anger are palpable. "Broken Man" speaks of the mental and emotional deterioration of someone who’s been pushed too far, and that desperate state where a person can be capable of doing just about anything."

Formed in Manchester, England in 2009, TEN FOOT WIZARD started as a stoner rock group, but quickly began to incorporate elements of punk, metal, blues, funk and psych into a heady mix of sexy fuzzed up debauchery. Live appearances alongside respected acts such as Karma To Burn, Scissorfight, Pentagram, Witch Mountain, and Elephant Tree has fashioned Ten Foot Wizard into a phenomenal live act.
The momentum from a hugely successful set at Glastonbury Festival 2019, and the release of ‘Get Out Of Your Mind’ (July 2020) promises to light the blue touch paper on a career of one of the UK’s most engaging feel good live acts. Mixed by producer Nic Hard (Snarky Puppy/The Bravery/Bokante) in Brooklyn, the follow-up to 2015's 'Sleeping Volcanoes' truly ups the ante of the foursome's groove-infused formula. Its juggernaut riffs and sexy grooves are taking no prisoners, as TEN FOOT WIZARD go harder and stronger than ever, elevated by the deep-toned vocals — when they're not turning into a monastic growl coming from the depths of the universe — from frontman Gary Harkin. 'Get Out Of Your Mind' creates its own path of glorious and highly entertaining brand of rock'n'roll, embarking in its wake all those eager to celebrate the end of the world the right way. With a special appearance from Snarky Puppy's keyboard genius Justin Stanton on final track "King Shit Of Fuck Mountain", TEN FOOT WIZARD spread their sonic wings wider and let their creativity flow through this 8-minute epic of pace-shifting psychedelic heaviness. Another TFW track for the books!
