Austin City Limits veterans Sphynx perform 2/10 and 2/11 at Monk's as part of their US tour this winter.

Bio: These Austin, TX natives have been compared to pop icons like Prince and David Bowie and to newer groups like Phoenix and MGMT for good reason. The trio's vibrant live show has carved it's own niche in Austin, where they've sold out popular venues, charted on pop/alternative stations, and become a fixture of the music scene. This was demonstrated on February 13, 2014 when the band performed at City Hall and Mayor Lee Leffingwell proclaimed the day 'Sphynx Day' in Austin. To date, Sphynx has released two EPs and toured the US coast to coast. With a sound that has proven wildly fun and popular, it's no surprise that Sphynx is already a veteran of top tier festivals like Austin City Limits, SXSW, CMJ, Bunbury, Midpoint and 35 Denton. The band will be touring heavily and releasing new music in 2015.
