History
Monkey, Don’t! is the sole work of Mark Robson, a London resident who is originally from the Hampshire suburban seaside. While on tour Monkey, Don't! are joined by members of Service Station.
The group were discovered after sending a demo to Musical Milk head honcho Anthony Peters and were signed to Manna Records. The band achieved critical acclaim with their Gubbins which went straight into the UK Top 40 album chart.
The band's most extensive UK tour started in July 2007, beginning with a date in London's Electro Acoustic Club.
Much of 2007 was spent in the recording studio, as the band worked hard on their follow up to Gubbins. An electro acoustic performance in London gave glimpses of many songs which Mark confirmed will accompany the group's next album.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“Considered in its entirety, psychoanalysis won’t do. It’s an end product, moreover, like a dinosaur or a zeppelin; no better theory can ever be erected on its ruins, which will remain for ever one of the saddest and strangest of all landmarks in the history of twentieth-century thought.”
—Peter B. Medawar (1915–1987)
“If man is reduced to being nothing but a character in history, he has no other choice but to subside into the sound and fury of a completely irrational history or to endow history with the form of human reason.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
