“Our trip was different. It was a classic affirmation of everything right and true and decent in the national character. It was a gross, physical salute to the fantastic possibilities of life in this country - but only for those with true grit. And we were chock full of that.”

We're Monica da Silva & Chad Alger, also known as Complicated Animals. We're a Brazilian-American duo based in California. Our music crosses styles, and we call our genre Indie Nova. Our EP In This Game features songs in English and Portuguese. Pop Matters called it "a 6 song masterpiece", and "the beginning of a new sound" 

Our songs have been featured in the movie Lady Bird, in a campaign for Tory Burch, in the Netflix movie The Last Summer, and in a Patron Tequila ad. The video for our cover of Times Like These by Foo Fighters, just got an Honorable Mention in the 2024 WideScreen Film & Music Festival.

Our new single Watcher (out on 08/09/2024), is inspired by our love for crime dramas and Nordic noir TV, and poses a question to humanity - are we ready to act on what we believe?

Here's more about it...

“I'd been thinking about there being two sides to everything, two opposing forces. Good and evil,” says singer Monica da Silva. “They are two sides of the same coin, but I want to imagine that good will prevail. That it's the more powerful force.”

Watcher started with a simple piano line that da Silva would play every time she would sit down at the piano. Producer and musician Chad Alger added drums and programming that swirl around the thematic, swelling melody, and seem almost woven into the plot, and entwined in the lyrics.

“We wanted the song to take on its own life”, says Alger. “Almost as if it were breathing on its own".
