Influences
A bit of Yuengling, teachers that cared and lots of travels across New Jersey/Pennsylvania, the Atlantic Ocean and the City of Light.
Panama originally came together in Philadelphia, out of the still-smoldering ashes of local favorites Caterpillar, Moped, and Meringue. A Philly super-band of sorts, they've appeared on NPR discussing their lyrics and opinions on the city of brotherly love, and how it's changed in the past ten years. Critics often describe the band as an intersection of New Zealand kiwi-pop and Feelies/Unrest inspired indie. Two records have been recorded thus far. The first, self-titled, features a line-up of Gram (Meringue), Mike (Caterpillar), Kara (the Jane Anchor) and Mark Zepp. The second, an EP, has just been released. The line-up on the EP is Gram, John (Caterpillar) and Brenda (also of Caterpillar fame). More recently, Gram moved to Paris, France, but has continued playing at venues in Paris and has crafted new songs for an upcoming CD. The band currently features a '3/4 French' lineup of Fred, Alban, Joel and Gram.
