Best known for her work in the popular Bay Area band, Blame Sally, Monica Pasqual has also released several solo albums and is the winner of six Independent Music Awards. In 2014 Pasqual joined forces with cello-phenom, Joshua McClain “weilds his cello like a post-impressionists brush” while guitarist Velvy Appleton adds a wide range of color, dimension and texture. Blame Sally’s fiery percussionist, Pam Delgado, rounds the sound out adding rhythm and gorgeous harmonies to Monica’s intense introspective, romantic, political and lush repertoire. Together they create a big, emotionally complex sound, rich in dynamics and moving easily from quiet fragility to unrestrained propulsion.
In spring of 2016, Monica Pasqual and the Handsome Brunettes released their first album. "Is Fortune a Wheel" journeys into what happens when unforgettable memories are lost by a lover whose ability to recall the past is fading. These memories, still cherished by Pasqual, are explored through song as she navigates the art of letting go. The album is a modern-day odyssey through love, pain, loss and the ultimate rediscovery of self.
