The band is a collaboration between Singer/Piano player Frank Montis and Saxophone player Rolf Delfos (Houdinis, Jazzinvaders). The songs are written by Frank Montis while the catchy hornsection is being arranged by Rolf Delfos.
As children of the dance age trained in traditional jazz, State of Monc fuses a slick electronic sound with pure jazz on acoustic instruments with an almost deceptive ease. And not only the press but their audiences confirm that they have elevated their sound to a totally new style, one that proves to be difficult to put into words.
PHOTO: BAS LOSEKOOT State of Monc has a musical story to tell, which they do with amazing drive and variation, all the while toying with the balance between electronics, brass and acoustic bass and percussion. The result is music with the smarts and soul of jazz that pumps with the energy of dance. GERMANY HAS JAZZANOVA, FRANCE HAS ST. GERMAIN, AND WE, WE HAVE STATE OF MONC.OOR (Geert Jan Jacobs) State of Moncs breakthrough came in 2000 when they reached the finals of the Netherlands most prestigious music prize, the GrolschBig Prize of the Netherlands. Their first album, Hand to Mouth (EDM/City Groovez) was released shortly afterwards. Since then the group has been carving out a reputation for itself by stunning festival audiences with their new Dutch-grown style and revealing their international potential. September 2006 finally saw the release of their long-awaited second album Clippertron on Challenge Records. Following on from Hand to Mouth (Citygrooves/EDM), on Clippertron the band works their primal, powerful wave of contemporary sound into sophisticated and refined original compositions. Clippertron is produced by Michel Schoots (Urban Dance Squad) and State of Monc, and features Michel van Schie, Ben van den Dungen, and other special guests. A new chapter in Dutch-grown nu-jazz.
Artvark, een saxofoonkwartet waar al het stof vanaf geklopt is. Weg met de stoeltjes! Weg met de lessenaars! Artvark beweegt! Artvark meandert door muzikale tradities en beweegt zich over het podium volgens een geimproviseerde choreografie. Artvark staat voor: vernieuwende eigen composities, eigenzinnige solisten en de avontuurlijke groove van vier saxofoons. Rolf Delfos (alt/sopraan), Bart Wirtz (alt), Mete Erker (tenor) en Peter Broekhuizen (bariton) brengen hun afzonderlijke achtergronden samen tot een unaniem creatief en origineel geluid: het geluid van Artvark!
