Mona Medusa began on December 17th, 2007


The cd release was very successful. Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible

"Mona Medusa's debut album, Shiver, makes no secrets about what this band loves, and that's layering up some rock sounds in blankets thick enough to sleep in.[. . .] Mona Medusa picked up a classic rock flavor, complete with a few choice blues licks, threw in some 90's alt-rock (dare I say "grunge"?) , a little post-punk (yes, shouting choruses too!), and did something really good: they made a cohesive rock sound out of it.[. . .] This whole "rich, layered sound" in rock music is tricky, so to not fall flat on its face is an accomplishment in itself. But Shiver pushes beyond that. This is a genuinely impressive first album[. . .]It's fair to say Shiver is a diamond in the rough, but it doesn't take any polishing to know this is a diamond worth keeping." -Skid McGruff, Lychee Media

"Really made me feel like I was standing at the edge of the world gazing down into hell, and then the end leads so well back to the first song, it really gives the album a great sense of wholeness. . .[You sound like]. . . Franz Ferdinand and Queens of the Stone Age had a baby. But there's a lot of influences / sounds in here. I think any fan of early Cure would love it (mostly for the fucking awesome basslines, a requirement for any music I like)." -Noah Leavitt, music correspondent (Osaka, Japan)

we were set up in Ft Wayne but it looks like it's not going to go through, so we are cool with playing anywhere in the ohio/northern kentucky area. If you guys wanted to set something up that would be awesome, let me know.

we still have an opening on Saturday April 25th we are trying to fill in the general area you play, it is the day after your cd release so I don't know how things would be for you guys, but if you wanted to set something up..........the nightlife is Austin is crowded with tons of bands but we are starting to find our place in all of it, and we do really well in Dallas and San Antonio. What about you all?????<br /><br />-preston
