Wolf Manhattan - Real Life Is Overrated

Real Life Is Overrated is the second album by Wolf Manhattan, the lo-fi alter ego of João Vieira (X-Wife, White Haus).

Released in 2024, the record marks a clear step forward from his debut, featuring richer production, more layered arrangements, and occasional guest appearances — all while maintaining the homegrown charm and understated spirit of the project’s beginnings. With garage guitars, minimal synths, and bittersweet melodies, tracks like “Breathe” (featuring Finnish vocalist Jenna‑Marie Laine) expand the album’s emotional and sonic palette. A collection of sincere, subtly humorous songs that offer an ironic take on everyday life — perfect for fans of lo-fi pop with a distinct personality.
