| Check out VIDEO at www.DaveDeMonki.com - Dave DeMonki has played in dozens of bands, musical groups, and minor tragedies over the past 15 years on bass, guitar, and violin. Warm up gigs have included Colonel Bruce Hampton and the Aquarium Rescue Unit, the Radiators, the Little River Band, the Call, Edwin McCain, the Producers, and on and on…
Dave started out with a different last name (Pretlow) on the violin as a youngster. At age 14 he turned to bass guitar in order to play in rock bands. After many years of guitar-envy Dave began performing on guitar and electric violin in 1996.
The advent of live looping technology (and a queer eye make-over) enabled what has become Dave DeMonki. Dave records his guitar as he plays live so that he can recycle sections of songs to play solos over. The current EP is 5 songs performed (without looping) by Dave, and with the help of producer/engineer/percussionist Brian Peet, and percussionist Louis Antoon. Check out the songs at www.DaveDeMonki.com!
"DeMonki music" is the culmination of years of house band and bar band jobs put into perspective. The songs are simple in form and arrangement but require some skills to properly execute. The live presentation ranges form straight ahead pop to jam band.
