"You would be mad to miss Colchester's fastest rising rock gods, Desert Monkey."

"Listening to their cracking new EP Made Great By A Breeze, the influences of such legendary 1970s rock groups as Led Zeppelin are for all to see with rocking riffs and guitar solos, which prove they have done their homework."

Released just a few months ago the EP has become very popular with one local record shop putting it at the top of the best sellers charts for local EPs."
