MONKEY WRENCH

About The Wrench
Monkey Wrench is a Classic Rock band playing music from the 60's through the Millenium.  Based out of Fresno in California's Central San Joaquin Valley, the band was formed in 1992 and has been a staple in the live music scene ever since.  When you have the chance, see and hear why Monkey Wrench is one of California's oldest and best bands. 

The Name
In case you were wondering...NO we're not a Foo Fighters tribute band.  Don't get us wrong, the Foo Fighters are great, and we do play some of their music.  However, Monkey Wrench has been rockin' since 1992...FIVE YEARS before the Foo Fighters song by the same name hit the charts.
