*MONOPHONICS*
Monophonics' sound, a unique blend of old school soul/funk and rare groove, began in the summer of 2005 when drummer Austin Bohlman was asked to bring together "The funkiest dudes you know" to open for the legendary jam band, Vinyl at San Francisco's historic Boom Boom Room. Since then, Monophonics have quickly evolved into one of hottest upcoming live instrumental funk bands in the Bay Area. Recognized for their retro sound, style, and approach (primarily inspired by late 60's and early 70's artists like The Meters, The J.B.'s, The Crusaders, and Tower of Power) members of Monophonics continue to rep. the name through performances, sit-ins, and collaborations with local and touring acts in The Bay Area. The Monophonic Horns have performed with Russell Batiste and his Orchestra from Da Hood (members of Galactic, Papa Grows Funk, The Funky Meters) and recorded for Eric Krasno (Soulive/Lettuce). Members of the rhythm section recently formed a collaborative turntabalism/live music project with Bay Area DJ Crew, 4OneFunk, calling it the 4OnePhonics. Monophonics debut album, "Playin and Simple" - a full length, all original recording was released September 8th and is available at shows, online, and will be in stores soon. These young heavy-hitters aim to spread live, instrumental dance music as well as represent and continue the tradition of California/Bay Area soul, jazz and funk.

"This band is a band on the rise. These young players are cooking up a hearty stew of funky rhythms. Catch them now and you will be able to say you were there when the party was just getting hot -- of course they have had more of a year of being hot and show no signs of cooling down. Its a bold beat and a fun time." -Guy Myers Bandlands.com
