MARCH 13, 2020: Effective immediately, all shows at The State Room and The Commonwealth Room are canceled or postponed through March 2020. ***** With these two bands, you should definitely believe the hype?two of the most promising live acts in America right now will be sharing our stage for one-night-only. When the owner of the legendary STAXX Records says you?re ?one of the best live bands? he?s ever seen, you?re onto something good. And that?s what Al Bell himself has said about the Monophonics?who bill themselves as Psychedelic soul from the Bay Area. In their own words: ?The band delivers cinematic songs with timeless hooks anchored by Kelly Finnigan?s soulful organ and powerhouse vocals. Their sound is inspired equally by classic soul, heavy funk, psychedelic rock, and classic American songwriting.? Con Brio is a musical direction that means ?with spirit? or ?with vigor.? Young and with appropriately relentless energy, Con Brio is a soul-funk-R&B band that answers the question you never asked about what would happen if someone combined James Brown, Michael Jackson and Prince (may they rest in peace). After taking Austin City Limits by storm last year and generating headlines like, ?The Best New Live Band In America?? and ?Soulful Powerhouse Con Brio Proves ACL?s Value.? Whoa, right? No pressure, guys.
