"City Country"
If you dig up the roots of HER & Kings County, you will find their time in the New York underground southern rock scene planted very firmly at the base. Front man, Monique first cut her teeth in various pop/rock bands, but it wasn’t until she began writing with Caleb Sherman, known for his vast array of talents as a musician combine with his cutting edge production, both Caleb and Monique were able to create a breath of fresh air to NY. A record that best fits to be described as City Country.
HER & Kings County’s debut CD, “City Country” is a masterful piece of music genius. Their mixture of Rock, Country, Pop is present in each and every song and they never shy from the fact of being from the east coast. “It ain’t about pickup trucks and rodeo’s for us” Monique screams, as her amped up audience all holding up their Budwisers cheers in reponse.. Lyrics such as “my backyard, million miles from nashville”, “saddle me up my taxi cab” and “now we head down to bleecker st., where the music’s hot and the beer ain’t cheep..”, always reminds the listener of the bands NY attitude and gives us a new perspective to southern rock music.
HER & Kings County has been a staple to the NYC music scene for three years. They take great pride in being a six piece band all from NY, who are all best friends and band mates as well. Live onstage, Monique (vocals), Caleb Sherman(pedal steal), Howard Alper(drums), Nic DiPierro(Bass), George Kapsalis(lead guitar) and Justin Sherman(rhythm Guitar) are each of equal importance to this band. They bring back the feeling of uniformity, something that hasn’t been demonstrated since the early 1970’s best rock bands. And, you can catch HER & Kings County at venues such as Rodeo Bar to CBGB’s. Their packed shows are filled with fans sporting everything from mohawks to cowboy boots. This band has unconsciously started a whole trend on their own, from the music they write, and harmonies they sing, to the clothing they wear, you never seem to forget that it’s “City Country”.
HER & Kings County fit right in with some of our music history’s finest bands. “City Country” is loaded with each song containing a hooky chorus, powerful vocals, and great musicianship. This band is pioneering the old school methods of having a musical career, and by the looks of it now, it will be a long one for sure.
