   About Kalon


Kalon is an art rock ensemble, performing in Pittsburgh and abroad since 2003.

We originally gathered over conversations about music and art at a wonderful Indian restaurant named Thali. Though originally meant as a side project, it took on an energy of its own, and took over as a central focus.

We are all growing and working towards out own unique musical expression, and leaving little breadcrumbs along the way. What we are doing now, will most likely be very different from what is coming next, and so on, but we hope that what we leave behind will be worthwhile.

Our base instrumentation relies on guitars, cello, bass, and drums, though we are also experimenting with harp, sitar, and tabla, zither, and field recordings for future compositions. We also have an occasional 'performance art' approach to live performances, including a wide variety of visual performances, and interaction, where possible.

Thank you for your interest, and do enjoy the music.

Interview with Kalon - Sound Spectrum Magazine

"Kinda like finding Jesus....very existential music. Feels sort of like falling off the monkeybars but landing on the slide!"
Linda Moore





September 12 2008

Kalon has two shows coming up. In September we will be performing with Kayo Dot and Salo at Modern Formations and in Washington, PA in October. To be more specific...

September 26, 2008
Modern Formations
8:00 pm
$8

Kayo Dot (Tzadik/Hydrahead recording artists from Brooklyn)
with Kalon and Salo.

October 17

The Citizens Library
Washington, PA

During this show we will be reading from A History of Washington County, Pennsylvania - while improvising for 30-45 minutes. No prepared material will be used whatsoever - the emphasis is on tailoring the performance to the place and people we are with in the moment. Any that would like to join us in the improvisation may. Also will be joining several other bands that I don't know the name of.


July 15 2008

While working with Rick Moslen on more serious filming for a visual display during our next performance, we, at random, decided to drive off on a side road next to a farm and chase a banana. The consequences of that decision can be viewed here.

June 10 2008

We are happy to announce that we are going back into the studio to record a new album this summer, as well as honored to perform at the Three Rivers Progressive Rock Festival. The sun is shining and everything is growing, so it seems time to produce some new creations, yes? Film major and musician Rick Moslen will be collaborating with us on filming for the next performance. Also, our website at has been updated. You can visit it here.

Ck out DC Music Store at http://dcmusicstore.com for a complete music store online! The lowest prices on Fender, Peavey, Ibanez, ESP, Takamine, Ludwig, Zildjian, Roland, Casio and more!

Are we the only online music store? Nope. But here's where we're different: We are owned and operated buy the owner. He is in the store 5 days a week. We are all musician's. There are no order takers, secretary's etc. We all love music just as much as you do and understand your passion. We are out there gigging away just like many of you and understand your needs and concerns. We carry top brand names like Fender, Peavey, Behringer, ESP, Ibanez, Roland, Zildjian, Ludwig, Casio and we also carry those undiscovered gems of brands that have a nice "bang for the buck" quality without killing the pocket book.

We run 2 songwriting sites that's free of charge to you
www.writingsongs.com and www.christiansongwriting.org There you can post songs and interact with many other songwriters. There are also free tips on songwriting there also. Those sites have been running for over 10 years and have a wealth of information on them.

Guitar players, drummers, school band, songwriters, keyboardists, dj's, brass and wind players etc. all can find the musical equipment they need at http://dcmusicstore.com Check us out. We are an independant music store. Not some franchise or chain store where the music gets lost in the shuffle we are a good old fashioned honest to goodness music store but we have ran a website for the past 10 years and have over 8,000 items ready to ship out. Check it out today. :-)

Thank you,
DC Music Store

Hi, My name is Patrick Callan, I just put out my first full length record-"Tales of a Folk Punk Nothing" on Blanket Statement Records.

It was recorded in the dead of winter 2009 and was released May 8th. I put a lot of heart into it.

Please listen to the songs I have up on my page, if you like what you hear, you can buy the record through snocap( The itunes competitor that screws over artists less).

As my label is small, at the moment all profits from the record go towards funding future projects,tours, etc. like the new record from my friends Turn Back Now! out June 25th.

Thanks.
Have a good day.
-Patrick

Hiya. :)
It's NuM again with a new creation...
The track's called Skeptical and recreates the reflexions of many in regard to religions nowadays.
Please listen and enjoy, and if you have some time tell me what do you think about it.
Comments are greatly appreciated.

Cheers, NuM
