History

Native to Lausanne, Monkey3 was created in 2001, initially as a gathering of musicians in jam sessions of stoner rock influence. In 2003 they became a permanent group featuring Kevin on bass, Walter on drums, Boris on guitar, dB on keyboards. With their debut album "Monkey3", released in 2004 by belgian label Buzzville Records, the band got great reactions and reviews all over Europe, putting them on the map of the stoner-rock scene.

Over their career, MONKEY3 have released 4 albums. The latest album, "Astra Symmetry", was released via Napalm Records in September 2016. Over the years, the Swiss quartet has toured in Europe, supporting bigger acts and playing festivals such as Roadburn, Hellfest, Freak Valley, and Desertfest Berlin
