Monte’s Who We Are album and tour
Four piece Kiwi turned Sydney-siders Monte release Who We Are, an explosive debut album which demonstrates a new brand of alternative rock music yet to be heard by Australian audiences. Recorded in the wilderness that is The Grove Studios on the Central Coast and produced by Samuel K (Gatherer, Shihad, Bodyjar), Who We Are delivers massive walls of sound paired with driving rhythm, dynamic layers of guitar and gripping vocal melodies.
Monte is the result of four musicians with a background in metal and hardcore, who aimed to distil these influences into a more mature brand of rock music. Since completing the album, Monte have released three well-received singles, Stay, Cascades and Reminiscence, supported by successful shows across Australia, national radio play including Triple J Unearthed, FBi, Radio Adelaide and 4ZZZ, along with two music videos shot by Ben Clement (The Amity Affliction, Universal Music, Nike).
Having played most of the country during their short career, Monte will be embarking on a Who We Are release tour to see out the year, bringing their powerful and captivating live show to audiences across Australia.
Who We Are is out 10th October and is available to purchase on iTunes and to stream on Spotify, Rdio and Google Play.
