Monkey Kettle Records
was formed in 2009 by "local arts divwits" Monkey Kettle primarily to
release albums and compilations featuring us and our mates. We are a
very small-scale and cheerfully lo-fi operation, but hopefully an ace
part of Milton Keynes' hot-rockin' music scene nonetheless. We're not
planning on "signing up" any local bands (other than ones we're in!),
cos we're nowhere near that organised - but we do arrange the odd gig
here and there in MK (for example "mental band night" MonKeyVision
or our cult "Second
Stage" at the Great Linford Waterside festival), so feel
free to make contact and be our pals anyway. We're all in this
together! To the toppermost of the poppermost!
Here's what we got...
 |
NEW! NEW! NEW! NEW! "TRIPLE FILTERED" by THE FURTHER ADVENTURES OF VODKA BOY (2011) (MKR008) And then there were three... "Milton Keynes' Premier Acoustic Duo" becomes "Milton Keynes' Premier Three-Man Acoustic Duo" - and I don't think anyone could argue with that... Now featuring the strenuous rhythms of Tequila Jim on the old music box, this is the Vodka Boys' most coherent and professional-sounding album yet. Do yerself a favour - get a copy today!
