 Longtime friends Stephen (drums) and Christopher (vocals/guitar) began sharing songs and collaborating during the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020. The group went on to release two singles that year ‘One More Time’ and ‘In Your Roots’. In late 2020, the group added both Bart (bass) and Ben (guitar). The four released their debut EP ‘come & say goodnight’ in the summer of 2021. The group has been releasing a number of singles to kick off 2022.

Cheap Monarchy has emerged as an exciting addition to the storied Chicago alternative music scene. A bright, alt-rock sound influenced by The Strokes, COIN, and Saint Motel coupled with energetic live performances make Cheap Monarchy a band to watch. In 2021, Cheap Monarchy played shows at HVAC Pub, The Store, and Budweiser Brickhouse Tavern and were selected to play a set in Glen Ellyn's SparkFest. In 2022, the band headlined a sold out show at The Store and performed at Chicago's legendary Subterranean in Wicker Park. They will be releasing their debut EP in August. The boys look forward to seeing you on a dance floor near you soon!
