Country rock, served up midwestern-style with a touch of 70's-influenced powerpop.
Palatine Hill was formed in Portland in early 2002 under the proposition that, somewhere along the way, rock quit being about great songwriting. At the same time, so much of what passes for country music lacks two crucial ingredients: despair and grit.
Palatine Hill is a rock band. Yet within their songs, you can hear bits of traditional Americana, whether it be the high lonesome pedal steel or the occasional mandolin.
We're playing a great show with The Joe McMurrian Quartet (now Woodbrain) and Eggplant this Thursday. It's a super solid evening of rocking roots music dripping in blues and jazz.
Hope to see you there! ~~C
