Monkeysuit is run by music lovers for music loving people and was born out of the pure frustration of every bad gig we've ever attended; after walking disillusioned from one too many we vowed to do it ourselves and do it better.
It's now 2 years since we first began and our following has been steadily growing, due we believe, people seeing us as a promotion group who care about what the musicians do, seek out open minded individuals, consistently book quality and always strive to make each gig better than the last.
We don't book filler. Even if you haven't heard of the band(s) we promote or perhaps they're not your usual cup of tea we believe when you watch a group we've picked you'll recognise that ethereal 'something' that only a talented act can create.
If you make your own music within a band or you're a musician and are interested in tasting the Monkeysuit experience for yourself please contact us and we will endeavour to reply asap. Feel free to ask any of our previous performers what they think of us, we're confident they'll say good things.
We have DJs Too.
Our residents Plundercats + mark is egg bring you a selection of genre spanning spectaculars to keep your brain fed. Check out the Plundercats here .
If you have attended one of our events feel free to leave a message. We would love to have your feedback.

'If there was an adult version of the old kids show Why Don't You, and it just so happened to focus on things to do on a Sunday evening, I would heartily commend the catchy intro tune to sing out: "Why don't you, just switch off your TV set and head to Monkeysuit Music instead." Yes I know sometimes it's hard to remove oneself from the sofa one is firmly ensconced in, especially after a huge roast and an aching head from the night before. But honestly, this very laidback gig night is just the tonic'.

'Having built up a reputation in their native Maidenhead for showcasing the best local talent, the folkies from Monkeysuit music decamped to Reading and taking the place by storm. Teaming up with the Oakford Social Club they've already gained a reputation for putting on interestingly diverse nights.'
