After a break from regular touring, the UK’s Redlands Palomino Company are set to release their third album, Don’t Fade, in Summer 2010.
Like their first two albums – the critically acclaimed ‘By The Time You Hear This…’ (2004) and Take Me Home (2007) – it features the trademark harmonies and heartfelt songwriting of husband-and-wife partnership Hannah and Alex Elton-Wall. Recorded in rural Wiltshire and the Wye Valley in a relaxed and laid back environment over the past 18 months, the album was produced by Alex and features 9 new songs, plus a cover of The Dillards’ country rock classic One A.M. As before, the songs range from heart-stopping ballads featuring Hannah’s gorgeous vocals, through country-tinged powerpop, to gritty rockers, while the band have continued to hone their craft and sound better than ever, with the addition of recent recruits Tom Bowen (electric guitar) and Dan Tilbury (drums).
Over the years, The Redlands Palomino Company have gained many devoted fans across the UK and beyond – thanks in part to their often-riotous live shows and enthusiastic support and radio play from BBC Radio 2’s ‘Whisperin’ Bob Harris amongst others. They have made various high profile festival appearances and have toured extensively with a range of Americana artists including Richmond Fontaine, The Sadies, Peter Bruntnell, Tift Merritt and The Deadstring Brothers. With the release of Don’t Fade, the band plan to hit the road again for a UK tour in early 2010.
The Redlands Palomino Company are:
Hannah Elton-Wall – vocals, acoustic guitar
Alex Elton-Wall – vocals, acoustic and electric guitar
David Rothon – pedal steel guitar
Tom Bowen – electric guitar
Rain – bass guitar
Dan Tilbury - drums
