" ... Monogroove captures a great sound with female vocals that sound comparable to Dusty Springfield ... "
Jason Martinez, livemagazine.com
" ... Monogroove creates hard-charging rock with truckloads of vocal harmony."
"Serving as proof that a band can play aggressively and still
retain sugary harmonies ... They’re
capable of producing scorching numbers whose melodies never get lost
in the shuffle. And, if one can get past the fact that these guys and
gals don’t play too rigidly along categorical lines, then Monogroove has
some serious chops to dig into."
Albert Vega, Music Connection.
Rin strings up her Waterstone guitar with Sfarzo strings.

“The Dangerous Science of Young Gentlemen,” Featuring new works by Alexander p. E . DIY Gallery is pleased to present “The Dangerous Science of Young Gentlemen,” featuring new works by Alexander p. E . Through written text, spoken word, and found object sculpture, Alexander produces a radical critique of historical and modern culture, rejecting dominant trends of commodification and detachment. Instead, the artist rearranges the banal objects of everyday life into forms vibrant with theory and thought. What results is a snapshot of history quite unlike what you may have been taught – and a glimpse of the future, shaped by freedom and the creative will. “The Dangerous Science of Young Gentlemen” opens Saturday, June 28th with a reception from 7-11 P.M. 1218 W Temple Street, 90026
