Bio
The band was founded by long-time friends Ed Rosado and Michael Mut in summer of 2007 as a way to get a spot at the yearly Hialeahfest held @ Churchill's Pub. What originally started as a reunion for Ed's previous band ..Rezidue.. instead turned into a brand-new project. The two principals continued to compose and rehearse together and eventually added guitarist Chris Core, saxophonist Ozzy Reyes, trumpet player Rich Dixon and trombonist John Normandin. The sextet now writes together and occasionally features other local musicians. Electric Piquete released their seven-song, self-titled debut digitally and on CD March 15, 2011. The music was conceived, recorded and mixed at the ..Shack North Studio.. with the help of friend and producer ..Ferny Coipel.. (..humbert.. | ..I Don't Know..). The band has performed at Red Bar Gallery, Tobacco Road, Lakes Cafe, Carnaval on the Mile, The 8th Street Jam @ Calle Ocho, Art in the Park, Jazid, Cuba Nostalgia, Big Fish, Finnegan's River, Bougainvillea's, FeSTiDAN, Dolphin Mall, WDNA 88.9FM live radio segment "Sound Theory", the Miami Music Festival, Educate Tomorrow's Gatsby Gala, Churchill's for Landarado, Jada Coles, Moonchine, Pontunes and private parties in Miami Beach, Miami, Miami Lakes and Southwest Ranches. Electric Piquete was named "Best Latin Band" in the Miami New Times' Best of 2009 issue (06.11.09) and "Band of the Hour" by Miami.com (09.18.09).....For booking info, please call 786.426.2277...........................http://www.bearfootsurf.com.. - Many thanks to E|P's official t-shirt sponsors Bearfoot Surf!........ .. .. ...... .. .. -

Come out and show some love for Monkey Village this Friday at Tobacco
Road in Miami! We'll be celebrating our 22nd compilation of local music
since 2005. Show time is 7:30 PM and 97¢ drinks from happy hour will
still be flowing at that time but not for long! So Come out early and
enjoy the Monkey Village All-Stars-never the same band twice!!
- The Monkey Village (MV) will be releasing their Twenty-second (22nd)
compilation CD entitled Black and White at Tobacco Road (626 South
Miami Avenue) on Friday, December 18, 2009.
The Monkey Village All-Stars, a rotating ensemble comprised of artists
from the catalogue, will be performing select tracks from the new
release, as well as tracks from past compilations.
In the past five years, the Monkey Village has released 4 different
sets of compilations, 22 CDs in all: Family Fruit (2005, 6 CDs),
Elements (2006, 4 CDs), Phases (2007, 4 CDs), Dimensions (2008, 4 CDs)
and now the series of Colors, “Black & White” being the fourth of
four for the year. The compilations run the gamut in styles; from the
radio-friendly pop of Deblois to the IDM-like complexity of Nomatico
Simpatico. All forms of musical expression are encouraged
The Monkey Village is a Miami-based collective comprised of musicians,
visual artists and spoken word artists, with small branches in San
Francisco, California and Asheville, North Carolina. Their main focus
is to highlight the talent in the local underground scene, providing
local artists an alternative avenue of expression. - DJ Monkey2 years ago
"DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell."
Bill Margold, Cinema Seen, L.A. X..Press
