Montana are a young 4 piece Groove Rock Band, based in and around Birmingham. They are all just 19/20 years old, but their song writing skills are mature beyond their years and the group continue to grow in popularity.Montana's sound is fundamentally Rock with elements of Funk, Jazz and whatever else takes their fancy, all performed with a commercial edge.
Montana have toured extensively across the UK, making them an unrivalled live act and gaining them a devoted fanbase. Montana receive regular airplay on Kerrang! 105.2 and in clubs across Birmingham, such as Subway city, and have also performed live on BBC WM. Montana were voted one of the best unsigned bands in the midlands by NME and Lee Jeans, culminating in their performance in the Birmingham Leg of the Lee Sounds Unsigned Tour.
