The Tokyo, Japan based
4-piece Instrumental Rock band MONO was originally formed in 1999. Their unique
approach of combining moving orchestral arrangements and shoegaze guitar noise
is held in extremely high regard; so much so, that the band’s musicianship and
the diverse musical palette has eclipsed the Rock genre and exists within its
own realm. As British Musical Magazine NME once stated, “this is music for the
Gods”.

Over the first decade,
MONO rapidly established a well-acclaimed status, especially with their live
performances. Through their annual world tour consisting of around 150 shows,
visiting over 59 countries, both critics and fans of Rock music agree their
sheer euphoric, dynamic resonance of performance make MONO one of the best live
bands in existence. A particularly monumental early live memory was a special
set of orchestra showsƒ celebrating the 10th anniversary in New York, Tokyo,
London and Melbourne; which was later immortalised as the live album “Holy
Ground”. MONO now also proudly holds the title of being one of the most
internationally successful bands in Japan.
