Monogold
Born out of the new wave of psychedelic dance-pop, Brooklyn “Strangewave” trio Monogold have been crafting nostalgic laid-back vibes since the release of their debut album in 2009. Monogold’s sound is characterized by a quirky simplicity that is both comfortingly familiar yet undeniably fun and fresh.
