Pomegranate, originally from Oakland, CA, formed in the mid-1990s and has released 3 albums. Pomegranate's debut album, Don Ron, released by Treat & Release Records, was well received by college radio and immediately went into the top-ten college radio adds (CMJ). Music from Don Ron has been featured on commercial radio specialty shows, including WPUP in Athens, Georgia, KWOD in Sacramento, KISF in Kansas City, KFOG and KITS in San Francisco, and many others. The band completed a 22-city national tour in support of the album.
Pomegranate's second album, Larry Lane, was co-released on M-Theory Records. Produced by Pomegranate and Bernd Burgdorf, the album was played on college radio stations nationwide.
Pomegranate recorded their third album, Outside of This, on their own with a definite low-fi approach. The album is stark and raw with 12 songs that touch on what makes Pomegranate's sound unique: intimate and moody with alluring shades of darkness broken up by slivers of bright sunny pop.
"All Five Senses," from Don Ron, is featured in the Warner Bros. release, The Trojan Wars. Their music has also been featured in two independent films, 35 Miles from Normal, which debuted at Sundance, and The New Gods.
Pomegranate's current lineup consists of Adam Twain, Gavin Canaan, and Michael Creason.

Wow!!!!!! I love you guys! I almost never even go to the pages of bands who befriend us on myspace, but something about your picture and name made me go to yours, and I'M SO HAPPY I DID!!!! What beautiful music! I'm listening right now, and I love this Afgan Whigs cover. My favorite so far is "The Edge of Sleep," but I love it all. Maybe we can swap CDs!!! Wanna?! Love, Dina
