RARE MONK and THE COPPER GAMINS at Nightrocker Live, Wednesday Aug. 17th








Bio:

Rare Monk is a collective of five Portland musicians that have been playing in and around Eugene and Portland, Oregon for the past two years. With a sound that has continued to evolve since the band's formation, their repertoire combines elements of pop, rock, psych, jazz, and funk. In January of 2011, Rare Monk completed a West Coast tour throughout California and Nevada and most recently took first place in Ethos Magazine's "Bandest of the Bands" competition in Eugene. They have also performed a number of festivals, including the 2009 Eugene Celebration, 2010 and 2011 Willamette Music Fest, and the 2010 Whiteaker Block Party. The group just finished their second EP, "Astral Travel Battles", and are going back out on tour this August in support of its release.
