The Montelongos were born from the heart, mind and many years of 4-tracking of eponymous frontman Omar Montelongo. This Ottawa, Ontario quartet is driven by an indie-rock sensibility infused with the alliterative preoccupations of the sensitive soul: love, lust and loss. The resulting sound is a catchy balance of tastefully emotive lyrics over a contrasting ebb and flow of melodic chords and powerhouse crunches.
Maybe you are the type who likes to gush and swoon over heart-on-your sleeve lyrics. Perhaps you are more inclined to bop your head and tap your toes along to catchy hooks and riffs. Possibly you are the kind who likes to hit the dance floor and get lost in a moment of musical bliss. Regardless of what call you answer, The Montelongos will dial your number.
