Bio
Known as the enigmatic and darkly sensual front woman of the Boston band and A.K.A.C.O.D., Monique Ortiz continues to wow audiences with her own brand of raw, visceral, bass-driven gothic blues. Her deep voice and bleak lyrical content draw comparisons to Nick Cave, Jim Morrison, and Portishead to name a few.
For four years in a row (2001-2005) Monique was selected as a nominee for Best Female Vocalist in the Boston Phoenix Best Music Poll, and The Boston Music Awards. Her songs have appeared in MTV's "Real World", and on various compilations. Her debut solo cd "Reclining Female" was described as "Thirty-four minutes of plaintive, contrary, concentrated genius" by The Boston Noise.
