Overview

Formed in 2011 by Yoshida and Tsunoda, who were active as jazz musicians. After releasing the 1st mini-album as an indie, Kikuchi Naruyoshi produced. Released 4th album with self-produced at the beginning of 2018.

The band's name was pinned by Tsunoda, who heard that there was a magazine called "Monkuru" supervised by Juzo Itami, and liked the sound of the word rather than the meaning of the word itself. Itami's "Mononkuru" itself seems to have come from "Mon Oncle (My uncle)" because there is also a work with the same name.
