I hope you haven’t been living underneath a rock but if you have, please allow me to introduce you to Monsoon. If you’ve heard of Monsoon, consider this a fawning post because I love this band so much.
Essential things to know about the band
- The members are very young, like barely out of high school
- The group turns 3 this year
- They’re playing the 40 Watt February 11th (with the Drive By Truckers)
- They’re one of two local bands to make me actually dance (Pylon’s the other)
- Think upbeat punk, shades of Pylon and B-52s without the cheese
- Heavy affinity for Japanese pop culture
- All of the merch on their site is sold out (save one t-shirt)
- You really need to see them live…
- But if you can’t then I’ve put their album below for your listening pleasure
