Monaco & Alameda established themselves as a pop folk duo in Denver, Colorado in 2013. Members Peter Sheridan and Erika Sheridan began collaborating musically, drawing from their varied musical and cultural backgrounds which unexpectedly created a strong folk sensibility. A reprieve in the countryside of Ireland, where Peter Sheridan is originally from, led to their debut EP Overtake where songs inspired strongly by family ties, road traffic, and being too close or too far away from home, were written and recorded. All songs written by Monaco & Alameda. Produced by Jack Glacken and Monaco & Alameda.
