Inheritance Tracks - Jason Mantzoukas

Comedian, actor, screen-writer, voice-artist, podcaster - Jason Mantzoukas can do it all.

He’s gone from improvised stand-up to starring in films and shows including Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn Nine-Nine and The League.

Born into a family of Greek-Americans in the early 1970s, he studied religion at college, drummed in a marching band, riffed in jazz clubs and moved to Morrocco to immerse himself in local rhythms.

So, what will this self-confessed music obsessive select as his Inheritance Tracks....

Inherited: When Problems Arise by Fishbone
Passed on: Vocalise My Love by Florence Adooni
