🎶 There's no mistaking the American artist MonoNeon. And it's definitely not just because of his bright neon way of dressing ✨ or the Dadaism-inspired bass guitar 🎸 also decorated with neon duct tape or a sock 🧦 on her head. He is mainly a damn great musician who was invited to work with such a great as the famous Prince 🎤👑.
MonoNeon (owned by Dywane Thomas Jr.) was born in 1990 in Memphis. He started playing the bass at the age of four👶, at eleven he was already playing with the legendary funky band The Bar-Kays. He spent a short time at Berklee College of Music 🎓, but then he went his own way. His specific style derives from playing the bass guitar upside down 🎸 - like a right-handed player playing an instrument intended for left-handed players, but he didn't turn the strings. His music reflects the influences of Indian musicality, he purposefully works with the element of chance 🎲 – what would be a mistake for other musicians is for MonoNeon just a step in another unexpected direction 🚀.
In Prince's studios he also collaborated with Judith Hill, he also played with, among others, Mac Miller, the keyboardist of the stellar Jamiroquai Matt Johnson, the electronic duo Knower or the American rapper Nas. In his own discography, which offers three dozen titles 📀, he shows his significantly more experimental side. MonoNeon is based on the so-called radio art and conceptual art and is sometimes compared to such a legend of avant-garde music as John Cage.
His art and set full of functioning energy ⚡ you will be able to enjoy on December 7, 2024 📅 at the Metro Music Bar in Brno .

🎶 You won't mistake the American artist named MonoNeon. It's definitely not just because of his bright neon way of dressing ✨ or his bass guitar 🎸 decorated with neon tape or a sock 🧦 on his head. He's mostly a damn good musician who was even invited to collaborate with the Prince 🎤👑.
MonoNeon (born Dywane Thomas Jr.) was born in 1990 in Memphis. He started playing bass at the age of four👶, and by eleven he was already playing with the legendary funky band The Bar-Kays. He spent a short time at Berklee College of Music 🎓, but then went his own way. His specific style comes from playing the reverse bass 🎸 - as a right-handed player, he plays an instrument designed for left-handed players without reversing the strings. His music reflects the influences of Indian musicality, purposefully working with an element of chance 🎲 - what would be a mistake for other musicians is just another unexpected step for MonoNeon 🚀.
In Prince's studios, he also collaborated with Judith Hill and played with, among others, Mac Miller, Jamiroquai's keyboardist Matt Johnson, the electronic duo Knower, and American rapper Nas. In his solo discography, which includes around thirty titles 📀, he shows his more experimental side. MonoNeon draws on so-called radio art and conceptual art and he is sometimes compared to such an avant-garde music legend as John Cage.
