Monroe Starr & the TradeMarx

Bedroom Rock for the Believers

About Me

6 continents, 6 players, and 1 pengu. It's that simple. All united in the promised land of Beijing, China. Together playing a multitude of instruments & sound...under the alias of the TradeMarx & their leader, writer, intelligent designer, visionary & late-night prophet, Monroe Starr - a true 'man's man', possible narcoleptic, a.d.d. disfunctionary, sword wielding/kung fu karaokee dude, frequent midnight rambler, and toast of many towns. To listen/download the first two albums and read movie script:www.manmadeinchina.comI edited my profile at Myspacelayouts . check out these Myspace Layouts!

Influences: The Great Wall of China
Sounds Like: Brian Wilson having dinner with Elvis, Gary Grit & the Petters, a kick of Rick James Brown & Neil Young - listening to grace being given by Daniel Johnston, while watching over a succulent pork belly...and a pinch of Raffi for dessert. I don't know...it's lots of different stuff kinda together-like. Mood music...soundwriting, but rockin...expiremental, but balls to the wall rock. Also kind of sensi. Guitar Driven.
