The area of Wilmington, NC where Carolina Beach Road and
College Road Intersect is know to locals as "Monkey Junction".It
gets it's namesake from a mom and pop store that sat on the
corner, but also housed monkeys. Many things have changed
since that store was there, but the folklore remains.

So when coming up with a name that would be immediately
recognizable to locals, we couldn't help but to call ourselves the
Monkey Junction Band.  Plus it sounds really cool and matches
the style of music we play.

Inspired by the likes of the Dead, The Allman Brothers, Robert
Earl Keen, Jr., Joe Crocker, and even John Denver, and Pearl
Jam, The Monkey Junction Band was formed to take our love of
various styles of music and bring them together to form
"acousticbluerockgrass".
