Kick-ass, Ottawa-based award-winning blues/rock band Monkey Junk make their Carleton debut on Sunday, May 24th at 9 PM. Joining them on the night will be new Mike Farrington/Brad Conrad (The Mellotones) project, The Negligents. Tickets are $15.

I mentioned that Monkey Junk was an “award-winning” band…

2014 Canadian Independent Music Award – Blues Artist/Group of the Year
2014 Juno Award nominee – Blues Album of the Year
2012 Juno Award winner – Blues Album of the Year
2008-2013 – 20 Maple Blues Awards
2010 Canadian Independent Music Award – Blues Artist/Group of the Year
2010 Blues Music Award (USA) – Best New Artist Debut

Obviously I wasn’t kidding. For an act that really hasn’t been around that long, they are certainly well on their way to legendary status.
