Java Monkey...the band from Atlanta ! Information & Monkey News |
|||||||||||||
|
We get this question all the time...How did you come up with the name? "Java Monkey" is derived from a Saturday Night Live skit entitled the "Java Junkies". We were enjoying a strong pot of Colombian coffee at a rehearsal and it was apparent that we were enjoying our collective vice. I remarked that previously I had dreamed of having a band named "Java Monkey"; Marvin and Michael liked it, so hence, a band name was chosen! By the way, we named this band in 1990, way before other individuals and organizations started borrowing our name. Plus back then, there were no Starbucks or other coffee houses on every corner like there are now...we were WAY ahead of the current caffeine curve!
This band is one of the bands to see while in Atlanta. They sound great, have fun, and cause people to dance! Their style is mostly R & B, with rock, jazz, blues, funk, and an original style that's fun to experience.
