LAS VEGAS, Jan. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Music is an integral part of an athlete's lifestyle.  From workouts to warm-ups, music and headphones are everywhere.  Drew Brees, 6 time Pro Bowler and 2009 Football Championship MVP-winning quarterback for the New Orleans Saints, and the Brees Dream Foundation have teamed up with Monster to bring the best of headphone technology to sports enthusiasts and youth. Music is a big part of Drew's life.  From workouts to travel, to spending time with family and friends, music can motivate as well as relax.  Monster utilizes all of its expertise in advanced headphone technologies to provide athletes with the best solutions for integrating music into their lives, from its acclaimed sweat-proof and washable iSport™ headphones for the serious athletically inclined, to its Inspiration™ headphones with advanced Noise Cancelling that make them perfect for frequent travelers, to its DNA™ headphones – The Shape of Things to Come with Pure Monster Sound™.

Drew expresses his views on this collaboration:

"Speaking for myself and the Brees Dream Foundation, I am excited to be partnering with a company who I think is the best in the business of audio and headphones. Monster's long history of making great products and being the leader in headphone design and quality is legendary. The company embodies the values of honesty, integrity, and giving back to the community that are very important to me and my wife with any collaboration."

As part of the partnership, Monster will also lend its support to the Brees Dream Foundation, established by Drew and his wife, Brittany in 2003 to improve the quality of life for cancer patients, and provide care, education and opportunities for children and families in need. In addition, Monster will join in sponsoring Drew's Hurricane Sandy Relief Concert at the upcoming Super Bowl in New Orleans, and collaborate with him to support additional Brees Dream Foundation events and initiatives, including Seg4Vets, an organization Monster has helped support for years, that provides Segways for disabled military veterans.

Head Monster Noel Lee noted: "Drew is an amazing athlete, but also an incredible humanitarian.  He is an inspiration for everyone he comes in contact with, and his work with young kids motivates all of us to aspire to become better. That is why Drew is a perfect icon for Monster's values, and is a reflection of everything we want to be for our customers."

Drew Brees will be available for interviews upon request.
