An interactive, super galactic – funk inspired, rock-n-roll show for families. From Rockness Music founder Michael Napolitano comes Michael & The Rockness Monsters. The shows and music of this act shine with creativity. The music is both silly and serious—filled with catchy melodies and thick instrumentation. Live, the band takes on new life with a full horn section, props and becomes what New York Family calls “an odyssey of imagination”.www.michaelandtherocknessmonsters.com
