Fender Live: 100 Monkeys to Preview New Album
Raucous, perpetually instrument-swapping L.A. funk-rock quintet 100 Monkeys previews its new album, Liquid Zoo at a private listening party on the evening of Sunday, June 19, at the Fender Artist Showroom in Burbank, Calif., followed by a live concert. Beginning at 6:30 p.m. PST, Fender will webcast the listening party and the concert in a special streaming event that will also include the debut for the new music video for "Wandering Mind."
The band custom painted two Fender guitars seen in the "Wandering Mind" video; one of the instruments has been donated to the Fender Music Foundation, a non-profit music education organization. Stay tuned for auction details!
Described as producing "tribal sounds with vocals recalling Jim Morrison's baritone croon" by Rolling Stone and "Iggy Pop with the Raconteurs" by MTV.com, 100 Monkeys has earned a reputation for their wild stage act during which the band is known to make up songs on the spot. The quintet comprises multi-instrumentalists who are all multi-faceted artists, actors and producers, including Jackson Rathbone (The Last Airbender, Twilight), Ben Graupner (Trapped in the 5150, Devolved), Jerad Anderson (Wayne/Lauren Film Company), Lawrence Abrams (Willie Bobo, Bob Hope U.S.O. tour, the Artist Consortium) and Ben Johnson (the Stevedores, producer of Spencer Bell’s “Brain”).
Liquid Zoo, the band's second full-length album, will be released June 28, the date on which the band's 40+ city 2011 tour starts in Cincinnati.
