Monty Are I
Once upon a time, in a far away place called Cranston, Rhode Island there was a band called Monty’s Fan Club. This band traveled far and wide with the Warped Tour in 2003 and 2004 and won contest after online contest. The band continued to tour and sold 4,000 copies of the Monty’s Fan Club EP with no label support or distribution. They started to make a name for themselves, but due to reasons beyond their control, this name had to be changed. The band settled simply on “Monty”, picked up the pieces and moved on to yet another Warped Tour in 2005 and further recognition from the press. Their ska-influenced peppy punk turned more heads with the 2005 release of The Red Shift. These heads happen to have included some folks at Stolen Transmission, an Island Def Jam subsidiary. The imprint label struck a deal with Monty and they began recording Wall of People which is due to be released August 1, 2006.
