Mon Frere October 16, 2006

Having spent the last six months on the road, Mon Frere eschewed home for a weekly stint at one of SoCal's best clubs. Each week, Mon Frere will be joined by a new host of up coming and intriguing bands from around the country.

Performing with Controlling the Famous, You Me & Iowa, War and Cinema, and The Lynx Technique . ALL AGES, Bar w/ ID. Tickets $8 advance, $10 at the door. Part of Mon Frere's weekly Knitting Factory Residency during October.

“Mon Frere's volatile mix of post-new wave dance-punk and electro '70s-infused power pop falls somewhere between Green Day, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and the Scissor Sisters, with a healthy love of the Damned. Their full-length debut for Cake Records is both fun and brooding, exuding a wicked late-night energy that conjures up images of Lost Boys-era Los Angeles. ” - All Music Guide
