Hailing from Missoula, Montana, Moneypenny formed this Blues and Rock quartet in 2015, where they quickly gained notoriety by capturing the Zoo Music Award for Best Blues/Jazz Band. Moneypenny brings a funky, high energy, authentic Blues experience with an emphasis on improvisation and experimentation that builds on the traditional sound that is “The Blues”.
Moneypenny has picked up steam on the summer festival scene, headlining the Salmon Blues and Brews Festival in Salmon, ID, and the Flathead Blues Festival in Polson, MT. The band took to the streets in downtown Missoula for River City Roots Fest in 2018 and has been a regular headliner at the Deadgrass Festival in Huson, MT. You can also find Moneypenny every summer at Out to Lunch or Downtown Tonight at Caras Park. Moneypenny also plans to get in some studio time over the summer months to put down a full-length recording of their original material. Look for an album to surface in the Winter/Spring of 2024.
