Smooth	Play that funky music

-

This young, funky and versatile 7 piece were initially formed in 1996 whilst studying at the University of Birmingham. They have since been playing in and around the Midlands with gigs at many prestigious local venues including the Centennial Centre, the Council Chambers, the Grand Hotel and three performances at the International Convention Centre, not to mention several full-house gigs at The Jamhouse (Jools Holland's favourite live venue in Birmingham) and New Years Eve 2000 within the fine surroundings of Crewe Hall.

Everyone in the band is an accomplished musician in their own right, with several of the players being accredited tutors working within the Midlands. All members of the band are music readers and, as such, form a versatile and adaptable ensemble that can cater for a wide variety of events, from their soul/funk/rock covers set to even performing as a show pit orchestra!

The band can also provide a quality PA system complete with lighting rig. Whatever your event Monkhouse will deliver a perfect blend of fresh & funky sounds as no other band can!
