Today, Dave Monks is sharing the newest offering from debut solo album, On A Wave, out October 18th on Dine Alone Records, with the jangly-indie-folk on “Love Fades” with Brooklyn Vegan calling it 'an atmospheric slow burner' going on to say the new song is 'pretty different from [the last single] “Don't Go Falling To Pieces” and definitely different from Tokyo Police Club's usual sound'. Stripping back the sound from his days with Tokyo Police Club, Monks' “Love Fades” is an ode to relationships in the rearview, simply somber but with hope imbued in the sweetness of the refrain. Speaking to the song Dave Monks details the song saying that

FEINSTEIN'S/54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, presents critically jazz vocalist John Minnock on September 20, 2019 at 9:00 PM. For his second engagement at Feinstein's/54 Below, the new-breed vocalist will present an encore presentation of the music from his 2018 release Right Around The Corner as well as fresh new renditions of jazz classics. In his energetic live show John presents jazz, blues and cabaret classics in a way that has never been heard before with the help of special guest, National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master and Grammy nominee Dave Liebman on saxophone. John's experiences as an openly gay man offers up a unique perspective that is at once eye-opening, touching and down right fun. Supported by a stellar rhythm section including pianist/arranger Enrique Hanenine (whose latest album The Mind's Mural hit #1 on the NACC Radio Chart) bassist Carlos Mena and drummer Pablo Eluchans, John's new 'gay-ahead jazz album' is a groundbreaker as it explores LGBTQ subject-matter in a jazz setting.

Following on the heels of the ambient, Kid A influenced, track “Bluebird”, Dave Monks is sharing the jangly emotional indie-rock “Don't Go Falling To Pieces” and announcing his debut solo record, On A Wave, coming on Dine Alone Records October 18th. “Don't Go Falling To Pieces” sees Monks finding his footing after the events surrounding after the near dissolution of Tokyo Police Club, which lead to their semi-self titled 2018 record TPC. Whereas in 2018 TPC saw Monks and his bandmates working together to rediscover their love for the band On A Wave is a personal, raw, record with Monks threading these disparate songs he wrote while in a state of dislocation into a cohesive, beautifully arranged and cathartic album that cuts through the chaos of modernity. Following his move back home to Toronto from Brooklyn these songs came together as an exercise in rediscovering those creative impulses that run through his previous works. As Monks sings on “You've known the way all along” one can decide to believe this as a truth, an affirmation, or a consolation that things will, or are, getting better.

Dave toured with Martin's band in 2017 and in 2018 for the “Cruise To The Edge” Tour.
