Monday's Mona Lisa
Overview
Monday's Mona Lisa is a modern pop/rock band that's edge is similar to 90's post/grunge rock bands much like Matchbox Twenty and the Goo Goo Dolls while adding a modern alternative flavor. The root of the music is the edgy guitar leads that duel with the melodic sound of classical piano while vocal harmonies reminiscent of old country power over top of the music to produce the sound that is Monday's Mona Lisa.

What to expect
Audience members should expect improvisational humor, heavy crowd interaction, heavy use of vocal harmony and a set list containing original music and pop/rock hits from the 70s to today!
Upon request acoustic percussion can be added as well to add a rhythmic backbone and give the audience a dance groove.
Because our ages span from 20-22, we specialize in parties (graduation, birthdays, coming of age celebrations, and holidays) and family friendly events. However, we can keep a party going in a bar too.
About
Monday's Mona Lisa is a pop/rock/alternative band from Satellite Beach, FL (70 miles east of Orlando). The band consists of 20-year old Austin Forcier (vocals, guitars); his 19-year old brother Dustin Forcier (vocals, piano, keyboards); and 18-year old Wyatt Kassin (drums)
The band originated in 2010 when Dustin's piano teacher asked if he and his brother Austin could play the Art of Sand Festival in Cape Canaveral, FL, which was in need of live bands with original songs.
The gig went so well that the brothers decided to continue to develop their sound as a band, eventually adding Kassin (who, at 14, lied about his age at the time when he heard that the band was looking for a drummer who was at least 15-years old).
Fast-forward to 2014, and Monday's Mona Lisa has played hundreds of live shows, have accumulated an international fan-base in 2013 by appropriately performing live “every Monday” on (link hidden), and have acquired combined social media fans and followers numbering over 50,000. Their international fan-base is so active that there are well over 30 fan-created Monday's Mona Lisa fan pages on Facebook alone.
In September 2014, Monday's Mona Lisa won in the ‘Best Original Band’ category at the Brevard Live Music Awards, beating out established bands twice their age and becoming the youngest act to ever win in the history of the awards, which date back to 2003 and showcase the biggest talent from Florida's East Coast music scene.
MML also rocked the Ernie Ball stage at Warped Tour's stop in Orlando for 2015!
