Monkey Girls is Ashley Byrne, Daniel Gillette, and Chris Sotraidis.

Our music is available digitally via Bandcamp and physically via live shows.

Emerging wide-eyed from a twisted fairytale, Golden Curls bends traditional pop music into warbly new shapes. Songwriter and producer Sarah Downen crafts her sound between innocence and darkness by pairing bells and pitch-bent flutes with heavily distorted synths and other-worldly samples.
