About BuddhaMonkey

TAKE A LOOK AT THE VIDEO... NIGHT VISION
From the deep, deep heart of the southern swamplands, where Saturday night forever means hot dogs, french fries, and first kisses with cola-flavoured tongues.

Where Del Shannon's 'Runaway' still echoes from the coloured lights of a gypsy funfair into the spanish moss.

The Monkey brothers formed the band after finding a flamingo-coloured Stratocaster named 'Desire' in the back seat of a gold 1947 Cadillac crashed in Roswell, New Mexico.

Tonight, whenever hillbilly cats and swamp foxes get together to roll dice and voodoo bones, some blood on the soundtrack seeps through to BuddhaMonkey. Some call it Zen Cowboy Music. Others call it Vegas-a-Delic. Some call it 'The' Blues. The definite article.

The monkey smiles and says nothing.

Mysterious Benefactors	Jul 20 2007 12:18 PM Howdy! We would like to invite you and your posse down to The Water Rats, 328 Grays Inn Road, London, W1 (nearest tube Kings X) on Friday the 27th July. We're playin with Lach, The Outside Royalty and 100 Mile House. Get there early, we're on at 8 and we don't want to miss you. If you're coming then message us and we'll stick you on the cheap list. This is what they say about Lach in the NY Times - “Lach is the mastermind of Antifolk, a loose concept involving acoustic guitars and punk-rock attitude, like a Lower East Side rendezvous of Bob Dylan and Patti Smith. Like black snow, stalled subway cars and random violence, Lach is a Manhattan institution.” This is what they said about The Outside Royalty - "...with such a strong and tight musical backing, it's a positively storming number, with wave after wave of crashing orchestration...You must get hold of this" From: the-mag This is what Time Out recently said about us- "...rough, witty and sweetly shambolic country-toned rock 'n' roll..." See you then for some movin and shakin. Love MB
