100 Monkeys Named A Band to Watch by Rolling Stone

Of the many acts at this years Bamboozle festival, Rolling Stone picked five bands that stood out, and 100 Monkeys made the cut.

“100 Monkeys: This eccentric Cali act have a built-in buzz magnet — bandmember Jackson Rathbone, also known as one of Twilight’s famous vampires. Their spazzy, energetic Saturday set blended tribal sounds with vocals recalling Jim Morrison’s baritone croon. The “can-this-be-real?” factor ran high thanks to song titles like “The Monkey Song,” lyrics like “free, free, free the beast” and five guys in bandanas jumping around and playing hand drums, trumpet and flute. The band’s latest release, Grape, is out now.”

Congrats to Jackson Rathbone and the entire band!
