With a timeless sound that blends heavy soul and psych-rock, Monophonics have built a reputation over the past decade as one of the best live bands in the country. Led by singer Kelly Finnigan, the band of has drawn on their colorful history â both their experiences as veteran touring performers and as individuals growing up in the Bay Area â to create âItâs Only Us,â their fourth release since 2012.
A reflection of what they see as the current state of the world, the record touches on difficult subjects such as broken relationships, mental health issues, gun violence and power struggles, all with an underlying message of unity, resilience and acceptance. The bandâs signature style of arrangement has been expanded with top-notch production and creative instrumentation to round out the Monophonicsâ trademark soul sound, while Finniganâs vocals are more powerful than ever. At times these tracks can feel classic, as familiar as an old song you grew up with, while simultaneously raising questions about the state of music in 2020 and what the future might hold.
âItâs Only Usâ is the sound of a group continuing to grow as songwriters, musicians, performers and people â reflecting on where theyâve been, and pushing the boundaries of whatâs possible in the years to come.
