#100 - Palomino Blond (Carli, Kyle & Michael)

It's the 100th episode for the podcast. For this interview we sat
down with Carli, Kyle, and Michael of Palomino Blond out of
Miami, Fl. The band exploded at The Fest this year in
Gainesville. They caught the attention of countless people who
made the trip, especially at the pre-fest show. It was their
first opportunity to play a big venue since everything opened up
again and they took full advantage of it. They are back on track
with their old routes. The band feels like they have made
valuable friendships and connections from gigging often. They
want to play hard and play often. A tour was announced for
January where they will be playing throughout Florida and some of
the surrounding states, so if you are in the area, definitely
make sure to be in attendance!


The pandemic has been tough on everyone, and that statement is no
different for Palomino Blond. They had a split come out in March
of 2020 and a bunch of press was coming their way, but once Covid
happened, Kyle feels like they hit a brick wall. A few months in
the band saw a lineup change, where the bassist and drummer left
the band. That is where Michael and Peter stepped in and became
welcoming pieces of the band. It was a fresh start for the group.
A new beginning in a way. It gave them a chance to restructure
and develop a new identity. Kyle also says they were more ready
to pounce on the world than ever. 


Palomino Blond has a fresh record called "ontheinside," which
came out on Nov. 19. Most of the songs were written in the summer
of 2020, but once they had the chance, the band made sure to
rehearsal often to prepare for the release. One of their social
media descriptions said the album is for loud minds and soft
voices. That is the best way to describe the record. It has a
little bit of everything. Check out the band below!
