The Monolators
The Monolators are an American rock band from Los Angeles composed of Eli Chartkoff (vocals, guitar), Mary Chartkoff (drums), Ashley Jex (bass), Ray Gurrola (lead guitar), and Jillinda Palmer (keyboards).
==History==
Originally called Lonely 451, the band formed as a trio in January 2000 with Eli Chartkoff on bass/guitar/vocals, Mary Chartkoff on drums and Mike Dennis on bass/guitar/vocals. This configuration lasted only 9 months and played a single show: a house party in Mary Chartkoff's living room. The band reformed as The Monolators in the summer of 2002 with Eli Chartkoff on bass/vocals, Mary Chartkoff on drums, and Mike Dennis on lead guitar.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.nofimagazine.com/monolatint.htm )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://radiofreesilverlake.blogspot.com/2007/07/mini-interview-monolators.html )〕 Soon after, The Monolators began taking the project more seriously and recorded the EP ''Hi-Fi Sound'' in their garage, followed by their first live show at Silverlake restaurant Zen Sushi in September 2002. In 2003, the band self-released a holiday-themed 7" vinyl single ''Santa Claus vs. Dave Matthews,'' followed by the full-length record ''Rejection Set Me Free'' in 2004. In 2005, Mike Dennis left the band but they continued as a duo with Eli on guitar. The band recorded their second album ''Our Tears Have Wings'' in the Fall of 2005 at producer Raymond Richards's Red Rockets Glare Studios with future member Tom Bogdon as a studio musician on lead guitar. They began a monthly "First Friday" residency at the Los Angeles club Mr. T's Bowl in June 2006, which ended exactly two years later in June 2008.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.themonolators.com/blog/2009/06/i-will-always-love-you-t-bowl.html )〕 The band became a trio again in 2006 with the addition of Andy Bollas on bass. After releasing the ''You Look Good on the Train'' EP in 2007, the band (following the departure of Bollas and with new members Ashley Jex on bass and Tom Bogdon on guitar) released their third record ''Don't Dance'' in 2008. In October 2008, the band won the LA Weekly Detour Music Festival Battle of the Bands contest sharing the stage with Gogol Bordello, Black Lips, and Datarock. In November 2008, the band contributed their song "Hot Sleigh" to the benefit holiday compilation "Plastic Snow" featuring Los Angeles bands Great Northern, Earlimart, and others.〔 〕 In 2009, the band changed their lineup again with the departure of Tom Bogdon and the additions of Ray Gurrola on lead guitar and Jillinda Palmer on keyboards, followed by the digital EP release of ''Ruby, I'm Changing My Number'' in Spring 2009.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.themonolators.com/blog/2009/05/monolators-digital-ep-release-show.html )〕
