CONCERT PHOTOS: Darling Pet Munkee, Gozu and The Downbeat 5 at RADIO
Fortunately for Boston music fans, Michael J. Epstein doesn’t seem to be tiring of dreaming up curious projects. On January 14th Darling Pet Munkee, Epstein’s comic-book ads-inspired trio with his Do Not Forsake Me bandmate Sophia Cacciola and Axemunkee guitar goddess Catherine Capozzi released a debut seven-song EP Glows in the Dark at RADIO. They were joined by garage rockers The Downbeat 5 and metal rockers Gozu.
About Darling Pet Munkee
Sea-Monkeys, X-Ray Specs, and a necklace full of soil from Dracula’s castle are among the many bizarre items that were sold in comic-book ads of yore. Garage/surf rock supergroup Darling Pet Munkee aims to tell the tales of these lost items in song. For the next 6 months, the band will be releasing one song a month – with accompanying history – examining the bizarre knick-knacks sold via these misleading ads that promised fighting skills, wondrous creatures, and grand journeys.
