BIOGRAPHY

Candygram For Mongo (C4M) is the greatest Rock-n-Roll party alive in Los Angeles. Booming guitars. Driving Rhythm. Melodies that can raise the dead. And who are the gods behind the thunder? Tony Shea - The Voice, Gary Sharp - The Drums, Dan Cohen - The Guitar, and James Baker - The Bass. Candygram for Mongo has been rocking Los Angeles since 2005. C4M combines the very best of 50-years of rock, power-pop, and punk with high-speed anthems that make the dead rise up and cheer. If Johnny Cash and The Foo Fighters were dating the Laker Girls - it would sound like C4M! In the new decade, you can expect C4M to continue on their path of writing amazing songs and playing killer gigs that make old people young, young people wise, and all women wanting.

Candygram For Mongo's self-titled, second album, CANDYGRAM FOR MONGO hit the market in 2008. It earned the band many new admirers with 13 lucky tracks that ripped, rocked, and rolled. Critics proclaimed that record number two "has more hooks than a tackle box," has "the sharp songwriting skills you'd hear from the likes of Elvis Costello or Cheap Trick" and "delivers on the promise that it makes of having a good time."

The band's first release, THE RED PILL (2006), was an immediate critical smash. Their track, STORY OF TRIUMPH, earned the band their network television debut in the Fox sitcom, UNHITCHED by the Farrelly Bros (There's Something About Mary). They've also placed music in the hit Sci-Fi Channel series, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, and in various independent films. Skratch Magazine wrote of THE RED PILL, "Hooks for days, sugary yet shouted choruses and a versatile knowledge of the rock 'n roll playbook...set Candygram For Mongo way ahead of the rest of the whiners, poseurs and talentless but popular acts on the scene." "THE RED PILL is THE RIGHT CHOICE!," said Blogcritics.org, "They are unique and fun, which is rare in an industry of carbon copy, 'thinspiring' wannabe performers." Finally, Black Angel Promotions writes, "the music is absolutely brilliant." So what does the future hold?

Witness the rock-n-roll resurgence that is Candygram For Mongo for yourself at any of their gigs. Playing with national acts including Hawthorne Heights, Hootie & The Blowfish, and The Smithereens as well as performing regularly at world famous venues such as The Viper Room, The Key Club, and The House of Blues, has garnered Candygram For Mongo an ever growing fan base not only in their home city, but across the country and around the world.
