Their sound
developed from a mutual love of old school rap, big riffs, and tight
grooves; the result being an approach to hip-hop fusion popularised by
bands such as Public Enemy, Rage Against The Machine, Beastie Boys, Fun
Lovin' Criminals, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Live performances place
emphasis on crowd interaction - achieved through 'call and response'
style choruses and a balance between powerful, explosive riffs, and a
solid groove to throw some shapes to. With clever, bold lyrics delivered
with a rhythmic flow, Green Monkey display respect for the roots of
hip-hop whilst aiming to engage a broader audience to the genre.
Their first year as a band has seen a consistently
positive reception and a following which is growing quickly. The aim for
2014 is to continue to develop an interactive and exciting live show,
gain exposure to a wider audience, and to launch a debut record.
