The Mold Monkies

The Mold Monkies started as a power-pop experiment between New Haven-area songwriters Nick Appleby (Chopper, Absolute Zeros) and Russell Shaddox (Buzzbaby, Biff and the Squids). The band's current lineup also includes guitarist Thad Brown. Their 2005 debut album, O Brave Yet Ignorant Swine, garnered good reviews from regional press. Currently the band is recording their second CD, scheduled for release in fall of 2008. For more information, visit the band's web site at www.moldmonkies.com.
