about

Monogroove, the talented West Coast power pop trio who dazzled us with their 2020 album There’s Something Here, is back with another terrific disc, entitled Into The Sun. On their latest release, the band delivers another must-listen record, featuring an eclectic mix of pop, rock, psychedelia, punk, folk, and even girl group inspired songs, which are steeped in the musical history of the 1960s, 70s, 80s and 90s. Into The Sun kicks off with “What I See In You,” a fantastic tune that has echoes of the indie rock sound of the 1980s. “What I See In You” is followed by an outstanding cover of The Rolling Stones track “Stupid Girl” which steeps the song in a British Invasion/Beatles-esque vibe.

Other highlights on Into The Sun include the 1970s flavored “Walk In The Park,” the edgy power-punk romp “Suzie Tuna,” the groovy, girl group-esque “Hold Onto Me” and the psychedelic-tinged “Times Out,” which sounds like a lost track from the much loved 1960s rock compilation Nuggets. The atmospheric “Times Out,” is a prime candidate for “Coolest Song In The World” status on the Sirius XM show Little Steven’s Underground Garage. In fact, just about any of the songs on this excellent record are deserving of multiple spins on that channel/show. Are you listening, Stevie?

Into The Sun also features some fine ballads which showcase the ethereal vocals of guitarist Rin Lennon. “I’ll Remember You” and “Darlin” are heartfelt songs that benefit from Lennon’s rich, emotional delivery, which is also showcased on the lovely “I Only Know” and the guitar-infused “”Here I Stand.” Throughout the album, Lennon’s excellent work on guitar is matched by the fluid bass of Woody Cross and the masterful drumming of Kenny Cratty. The band’s sheer joy at playing together shines through on every track on the record. Just listen to their tight interplay on the rocked out “Me In You” and the 1970s pop styled “Even Try.”

Into The Sun is a phenomenal record, which should enthrall dyed in the wool music fans who dig 1960s, 70s and 80s pop/rock. Monogroove not only celebrates the sound of the groups that inspired them, they masterfully put their own spin on these beloved rock and roll genres.The album is a must listen for those who like their rock and roll played with heart, passion, and soul

Maybe Monogroove are a band that will last for ever? Now, that would be nice, wouldn’t it? Yes, I’m getting to feel a bit sentimental now.
