In a review in an Austrian Blues online magazine, the writer included these comments about Monica, “For years I have played the blues song, ‘Try To Find Another Man,’ and have had people guess if the singer was young or old, black or white, and man or woman. No one ever guessed that the singer, Monica Dupont, was young, red-haired, white, and six feet tall. I often wondered what had happened to her. Then one day, twenty years later, she contacted me. I was glad to find she was still with us.
Monica was the only girl vocalist, band leader, guitarist, and songwriter on the local blues scene from 1975 to 1983. She and her band, including people still playing the blues today, performed in a lot of different venues and played a variety of blues-based music to introduce the blues to a wider audience, and to show that there were blues in almost every type of song. The group also recorded songs, mainly written by Monica.
“Monica’s deep baritone voice is what makes her unique. She has been singing most of her life. She sings with good expression and entertains audiences with her imaginative, original songs.”
