Responsible Monkey Presents:
Forrest Day - Dogcatcher (single release) - Greysmith
After a two-year hiatus, Oakland's Forrest Day returns to San Jose.
"A lumberjack-sized, redheaded saxophone player who melds jazz, reggae, and rock with whip-smart rhymes rivaling any in hip hop..." - LA Music Blog
"Idiosyncratic. Original. Novel. Call it whatever you like, but let this be known: Bay Area musician Forrest Day is easily one of the most captivating individuals the cultural-rich locale has ever produced." - ABSOLUTE PUNK.NET

San Jose locals, Dogcatcher, bring their mix of jazz, indie rock, & hip-hop to the stage, and are celebrating the release of a brand new single featuring Gift of Gab of Blackalicious.
"The finished song has everything you could possibly want: a cool low-key melody, inspiring emotive lyrics, and a rap verse by an indie rap legend." - Aaron Carnes, music journalist

This show marks the debut performance of Greysmith, a project of Tektite's Drew Annis and Bennett Roth-Newell of The Bad Ones. Drew drips his almost lounge-like vocals over the jazz and soul infused backbeats of Bennett and the Greysmith rhythm section.
This all goes down at the Art Boutiki Music Hall at 44 Race Street in San Jose. Grab a beer or glass of wine (if you're 21+ with ID), sink into a cozy couch, or get grooving on the dance floor while Responsible Monkey Presents brings you high quality music for the soul supported by the finest sound engineer in San Jose.
