Band to Watch: Monster Bobby

Monster Bobby

Responsible for both helping to form the indie pop girl group The Pipettes and serving as their principal songwriter, Monster Bobby is also the guitarist for their all-boy back-up group The Cassettes. As a solo artist, Monster Bobby mixes electronic samples, offbeat songwriting and avant-garde intellectual influences for a decidedly different sound from the upbeat Pipettes.

The involvement of Ryan Morey (responsible for mastering Arcade Fire’s Funeral) on Monster Bobby’s debut full-length, Gaps, is a good reason to get excited. Another reason would be “The Closest Experience to That of Being With You Is the Experience of Taking Drugs”, which showcases his talent for solid songcrafting in a compact electronic-infused track.
