Ana Emily Monaco, vocalist and guitarist for the trio Anamon, flirts with punk and country and likes to keep her songs short and sweet. The tunes are mid-tempo numbers with elements of shoegaze, stripped down but lush with cinematic reflections of life's grind. Anamon — also including bassist Benton Sillick and drummer Aaron Mika — brings to mind Rochester performers like Americana singer Rita Coulter or the 1980's female-fronted trio The Rumbles at its most vulnerable moments. It's a combination that's intimate, spare, and evocative.
Anamon performs with Mikaela Davis and Overhand Sam and the Bam Bam Band on Sunday, December 31, at Radio Social, 20 Carlson Road. 7 p.m. $13-$15. radio-social.com; anamon.bandcamp.com.
