About
The Golden Palominos is an eclectic musical collective that emerged from New York City in 1981, spearheaded by drummer and visionary Anton Fier. Known for its revolving-door lineup, the group has included notable musicians like John Zorn (saxophone), Arto Lindsay (guitar), and Bill Laswell (bass). The Golden Palominos defy easy categorization, straddling genres such as trip hop and spoken word, while incorporating elements of avant-funk, punk, and jazz. Each iteration of the group has brought a fresh sound, maintaining an experimental edge and an openness to diverse musical influences.
How to Sound Like The Golden Palominos
