Biography
Inigo Montoya is a three-piece ensemble from the Philadelphia region that formed in the Summer of 2010. After years of playing in various outfits since high school and dabbling in other bands during college, they started late-night jam sessions in a room above a garage in the depths of Bensalem, PA (later dubbed “Studio 8”). They each bring more than a decade of experience playing music, from playing in church, to school music programs (some of them earning degrees) and of course, rocking out at home, bars, and anywhere that would have them.
After refining their sound for several months, the band is currently self-producing their first EP which is tentatively titled Clown Cars and Race Tracks. The band's sound is based in rock music such as Pink Floyd, Spoon, Wilco, and Dinosaur Jr., but with a healthy dose of R&B/Funk such as The Meters and Parliament, plus a touch of hip-hop grooves such as The Roots and A Tribe Called Quest. The band focuses on accessible, catchy, groove-based material with the occasional extended jam.
The band is looking to gig at higher-profile venues that can give them the exposure they've been seeking. Having all been in gigging bands in the past, (Mike Post and the Band Before Time, Golden Opportunity, among others) they feel this new project is on another level in terms of composition and performance, and believe that their live performances reflect this. Stay tuned for more updates!
