Born and raised in St. Louis, Monica Valli cut her teeth in the city’s gritty blues clubs as a teenage guitar slinger, earning a reputation for raw talent and a soul far older than her years.

Monica’s debut EP ‘Red Blood Moon’ is now available on all streaming platforms. RBM emits a haunting blend of desert blues, hill country Americana, and raw soulful storytelling.
