painted-palms

San Francisco pop duo Painted Palms released their debut album, Forever, earlier this year which mixes Beatlesque melodies and dancefloor proclivities. You can stream it via Rdio if you haven’t heard it. For more on the band, singer Chris Prudhomme was interviewed for a web show called “In the Now.” The interviewer may also be Prudhomme (one is wearing a hat and sunglasses, it’s hard to tell!). That video makes its premiere in this post and you can watch that below.

You can also catch Painted Palms live. The band have just started a cross-country trek that will bring them to NYC for a show at Glasslands on June 19 with Carpark signee Saint Pepsi and Candide. Tickets are on sale.

Brooklyn duo Candide are releasing a new EP, Don’t You Go, on June 24 via Zappruder Records. You can stream one of its singles, “Scaredy Cat,” with the list of Painted Palms dates and the “In the Now with Painted Palms” video, below…
