about
Official website: www.mastersmonkeys.net Master's Monkeys was formed in spring 2005 by Paul A. Kessler and Anto A. Marijic. Paul & Anto started as a duo, recorded their first 5-track EP and had their first live show as Master's Monkeys in Berlin, January 2006. Later that year Paul moved to Germany's former capital Bonn, wrote a lot of new songs and looked for further musicians to work with. After a Germany tour, Paul published a Master's Monkeys live album, called 'Street Theater 2008' In Summer 2009 the song 'Over & Over Again' was the winning song in a competition of the West German Radio and not much later Paul finished his first longplayer 'Under The Shade Of A Pine' in October 2009. At the end of February 2010 the song 'Little Prostitute' was the next winning song of the WDR 2 radio competition. A fitting description of the music was given by a fan, who listened to Master's Monkeys on last.fm. “It's like Tom Waits creeping around the Grimm Brothers enchanted forest.“ Street ballads, crime stories and traumatic dreamworlds – Sometimes bluesy, sometimes jazzy and always reflecting a special and particular atmosphere. Right now Paul has just moved to Germany's media city Cologne and started working with a young talented video artist to produce visual material for Master's Monkeys. Under The Shade Of A Pine Street ballads, crime stories and traumatic dreamworlds Master's Monkeys' longplayer debut "Under the Shade Of A Pine" has already earned a lot of good feedback
