Thelonious Monster

Thelonious Monster

Thelonious Monster is a punk rock band from Los Angeles, led by singer-songwriter Bob Forrest. They were a popular live attraction in the underground rock clubs of Hollywood in the 1980s and put out a series of critically acclaimed albums, but never achieved major commercial success. Their name derives from the name of the famous jazz musician Thelonious Monk.

After several years of sporadic activity and side projects by Forrest, Thelonious Monster reunited in 2004 at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California and at the Sunset Junction Street Fair in Los Angeles, and released their first new album in 12 years.
