Saucy Monky, the Irish/LA combo championed by Hot Press, have issued a very smart new video to promote their new Pledge campaign.

The band are raising funds to promote their upcoming fourth album Trophy Girl, which is set to be released in 3 parts via 3 EP's, before being integrated into a final album version.

"We have come to realise that a great piece of art/music is not enough to reach the masses," the band led by Cynthia Catania and Dubliner Annmarie Cullen, said in a message to lovers of great rock 'n' roll. "That's why we are reaching out to you. We need your help in hiring a publicity and marketing team (like we did with our first two albums in Ireland, with GREAT success)."

The record is already beginning to build momentum, with a video for the first single that is attracting attention.

"We are finally getting ready to release Trophy Girl," they explain. "We are super excited about it and we just finished a very fancy schmancy music video for our first single 'Awkward' which will be released online next month. The video has a full cast of actors and it was produced by the wonderful filmmakers at Ghostlight. It just got accepted into the Fresno ReelPride Film Festival as a short film. Super exciting!!!"
