Bio
MUNROE is continually refining themselves (musically and personally) from their experiences with CHEVELLE and grooming under Steve Gillis (FILTER), Gooch ( Tim Lougee of Azoff Entertainment/Former Tour Manager for SMASHING PUMPKINS), Roger Jansen of KMA Management, and other industry moguls. They are one of the hardest working bands around, and are committed to putting on the best rock show Chicago has ever seen.
They have a polished professionalism and sharp business sense has made them a very marketable asset in Chicago's music scene. MUNROE has an explosive live show that leaves audiences in awe, get familiar with their name.
