THE MOLD MONKIES


The Mold Monkies’ sound consists of fun, upbeat, guitar riffs, bouncy bass lines and solid drums.  The result is a blend of power pop, post-punk, and indie rock that lies somewhere between The Strokes and The Super Furry Animals, with a touch of early REM for good measure. They wander sentimentally from bubble gum punk rock without losing a step or jarring the listener from a toe-tapping good time. The songs come from Nick and Russell, but they have formed a band that re-creaes the complex and energizing tunes found on their first CD-AND those of the upcoming CD- "Sloats Afire!" to be released right here at The Daffodil Festival with their performance on The Jeff Crooms Welcome Stage on Saturday from 7:45- 830-just before the massive fireworks display from Castle Craig.
