Painted Palms
The Neighborhood: SOMA // Painted Palms from Yours Truly on Vimeo.
Yours Truly profiled local act (via Louisiana) Painted Palms for the latest edition of their Neighborhood series. Aside from it being shot beautifully, I love this video for a few reasons. Reese and Chris, the cousin duo behind Painted Palms, live in my neighborhood and there are a number of great shots along Divisadero, the main drag in our area. Also, I have met the guys a few times through mutual friends and it feels great to be able to support nice, talented people from the hood (and to name drop!). I’ve only casually listened to their recorded material, but was lucky enough to catch them last night at Milk Bar and I was extremely impressed. Their sound benefits a lot from the breathing room afforded by a venue and they had the crowd grooving on a typically groove-less Monday night. Highly recommended if they come through your town.
