PALUMBO RETURNS WITH A CRACKING NEW ALBUM!!!
After more than a decade “slogging it out” in the music industry with many highs & just a few lows,
Palumbo has returned to Australia with his experiences sonically crafted into an 11-track album for your listening pleasure.
“Tales From the Big Smoke” is exactly what it says on the tin.
Sydney – July 28h 2023 – “This House” – 3rd single release from “Tales From the Big Smoke” LP – available globally.
** Launch Show @ The Borland Lounge – The Joan, Penrith NSW. 29th July : 5-7pm**
The songs are a culmination of the trials & tribulations of living in London as an ex-pat freelance musician pre & during the pandemic.
Stories in the music come from personal experience & observation gained through surviving & thriving as a working musician : (see bio https://www.musicglue.com/palumbo/about ) :
* As a band leader consistently gigging 2011 – 2019
* Touring internationally as a respected musical troubadour &/or session player
* Making deals with “snake oil” salespeople of the world – as alluded to in popular 2nd Single “Winner Grinners” (released Berlin 11th March 2022) https://youtu.be/JjlX_ge2nfM
* Meeting his sweetheart – the inspiration behind acclaimed 1st single “Sweetie Song” released London 20th August 2021 https://youtu.be/NYQah2f9740
* Therapeutic musician working with people needing support #musictherapy
“Tales From the Big Smoke” was produced by Palumbo & Simon Willey (Bryan Ferry, The Great Gatsby) in Area 18 Studio (West London) & Ashley Manor Studio (Bath) just before and (remotely) during UK lockdowns.
Simon’s sound, synth and omnichord skills complement Palumbo’s intricate guitar work and expansive harmony, taking the arrangements to a new level.
BBC London described Palumbo as a “musical powerhouse.” He has received consistent radio play globally year after year and has been awarded various accolades.
Since returning to Australia, Palumbo has set up in the Blue Mountains, gigging regularly (as per usual) and participating in numerous radio profiles of his work.
“This House” is a funky little number accompanying the album launch.
