PALOMINO

Palomino was founded in Brooklyn NY when singer songwriter Elijah Amitin met drummer and producer Mike Sweeney. They combined elements of alternative, punk, and classic rock as a duo. The two recorded a self titled EP, Palomino (2012) and shortly thereafter multi-instrumentalist Pat Deeney joined the band on bass. As a trio, Palomino went to Philadelphia to record their debut full length album at Miner Street studios with producer Jon Low (Kurt Vile, War on Drugs) the album, How to Raise a Wolf, is set to be released September 2014. In the summer of 2014, Greg Tallent joined the band on keyboards.

"In 2011 the band recorded their debut self-titled album, five songs layered with Amitin's emotional dissonance over jangled guitar and drums that grab at your heartstrings." http://www.ybny.com/ybny/features/2012/02/palomino-releases-self-titled-ep.html

THE DELI MAGAZINE
“The band's faster songs (like the embedded "Ghost Story") are balancing acts in which mid-fi grittiness conveys character to lead singer's Elijah Campbell Amitin’s Costellian retro-pop melodies. The 2 ballads in the record nod again at early 60s crooning classics, without giving up the distorted guitars and driving drums.” http://nyc.thedelimagazine.com/8733/palomino-releases-debut-ep-ella-lounge-on-0217

“Their upcoming, self-titled EP is marked by the steady, straightforward rock compositions of Elijah Campbell and Mike Sweeney, and Campbell’s soulful, fiery vocals.

“…A unique vibe and memorable sound that not many people know about–but should. In my view, Brooklyn-based Palomino is one of those bands.” ...“This 3-piece band has a raw, sparse sound that will actually appeal to a variety of listeners…I hear a great song. Catchy, stick-in-your-head music. “http://oomphmusicblog.com/palomino-ponte-vecchio/
