“Like Yesterday” is solid as can be, a hard-hitting number with walloping drums, punchy horns, and powerhouse vocals – a track that starts out like it’s going to slow cookin’ jam highlighted by bluesy soul guitar, but it heats up quickly!” -Dusygroove.com

“The track is insanely professional with a big arrangement and beautifully smooth dynamics. Dare I say this sounds like something Curtis Mayfield might have done. There is a lot going on and yet it all comes together with the musicians playing as a unit and not individuals.” -P. James Blog talking of the new 45 “Like yesterday”
“Monophonics [is] another prime example of the talent spewing forth from the streets of San Francisco and surrounding areas. With their retro sound, style, and approach, they have become one of the hottest upcoming live instrumental funk bands with inspirations stemming from the late 1960s and 1970s.”

“Never one to offer audiences a breather, Monophonics, looking like they’d raided the Art Ensemble of Chicago’s closet and make-up drawer, funneled nasty strangeness into funky frames after the Hips.”
Dennis Cook, Jambase.com

“Since forming in 2005, Monophonics quickly made a name for themselves, keeping the hard funk sound of the ’60s and ’70s alive with countless gigs around the Bay Area and beyond.”

“One of the best bands to come out of Marin in 10 years.”

“This band is a band on the rise. These young players are cooking up a hearty stew of funky rhythms. Catch them now and you will be able to say you were there when the party was just getting hot — of course they have had more of a year of being hot and show no signs of cooling down. Its a bold beat and a fun time.”
