Formed in Melbourne in 1988, Girl Monstar gained a reputation as a formidable live act and made an impact with their all-too short recording career.
They played more than 200 shows, sharing stages with Iggy Pop, the Ramones, Sonic Youth, the Hard-ons, GOD, the Hoodoo Gurus, The Divinyls, Poison and Skid Row.
Two singles, “Surfing on a Wave of Love” and “Joe Cool”, topped the Alternative charts in 1989 and 1990, both nominated for Best Independent Release at the ARIA Music Awards. The band released a solitary album, “Monstereo Delicio” in 1992.
Trailblazing Melbourne garage-pop/hard rock band Girl Monstar are back with their first new music since 1992.
