The Trouble With Monkeys
The Trouble With Monkeys is NOT a tribute band that scrupulously Xeroxes the sound and look of the fab Monkees. We play the hits, of course, but we rock them out and punk them up, and unleash those beautiful '60s melodies with a firestorm of loud guitars, pounding grooves, and soaring vocals.
Band Interests
Melody! Vocals! Groove! Bombastic Guitars!
Artists We Also Like
Local Bay Area acts such as Malice Cooper, Duran Duran Duran, Punk Floyd, Chick Jagger, Stung, Zeparella, Madam and the Ants, Jean Genies, and the whole tribute-band community!
