Description

Stratford Sound Pathways presents THE BLOW MONKEYS

Few bands carry four decades of music like The Blow Monkeys and still have something genuinely new to say. Digging Your Scene and It Doesn’t Have To Be This Way made Dr Robert and his band household names in the mid-80s. Their cover of You Don’t Own Me featured on the Dirty Dancing soundtrack, the biggest-selling film soundtrack of all time. They worked with Curtis Mayfield, Paul Weller and Cheb Khaled before most bands had even found their sound.

Reformed since 2008 and showing no signs of slowing down, their thirteenth album Birdsong was recorded at Paul Weller’s Black Barn Studios and released on Alan McGee’s Creation Youth label. McGee’s verdict: “as good as anything Dr Robert did back in the day.”
