Melbourne indie lifers Monnone Alone return to Thirroul on Sunday, March 29 for an afternoon show at Franks Wild Years with Sydney supergroup Victoria.Monnone Alone is a confoundingly misnomered four-piece powerpop powerhouse comprising members of Melbourne icons Mid-State Orange, The Smallgoods and Ciggie Witch all cunningly pieced together by former-Lucksmiths bass fella Mark Monnone. On their fourth long-player Here Comes the Afternoon, the band tweak their Madchester potentiometer and fade some gentle psychedelia into the mix on songs about fish ponds, teenage hairstyles and calcified brain lesions. Unapologetically janky ’n’ jangly—far-out yet familiar—a night out with this fine foursome will leave you questioning how you ever ended up in this predicament, while at the same time asking “when can we do it again?”
Victoria, named after the Kinks song, consists of members of seminal bands Youth Group, The Vines, Smudge and Songs. Members are Cameron Emerson-Elliott (Youth Group), Alison Galloway (Smudge), Patrick Matthews (The Vines, Youth Group) and Max Doyle (Songs). Victoria recently released ‘Silence is Golden’, the first single from their upcoming second album, tentatively titled Paris Flowers.
