Miserable Man

Athough it's fairly easy to hear the influences in The Monco Poncho's music it's surprisingly difficult to put a short label on it. This very unique debut album form one of Dallas Texas most popular live bands brings together elements of 50s & 60s pop, surf and western with 80s alternative and textures borrowed from the classic sound tracks of Ennio Morricone to complement what are at their core lyrically well written songs that are just as emotional as they are catchy. Review excerpt: 'The Monco Poncho's new record, Miserable Man, is an album by four men who know exactly who they are-an act that is passionately filling the surf-rock void in the Dallas music community. For filling such a weird niche, their popularity is somewhat baffling. With this new disc, though, it's almost certain that their popularity will increase-along with Clint Eastwood movie rentals on Netflix.' - Daniel Hopkins from DALLAS OBSERVER.
