Palo Duro Releases LP Ryou Cannon on 30th Century Records

Austin based Palo Duro releases their much-anticipated LP Ryou Cannon today via 30th Century Records. The beginnings of Austin's Palo Duro date all the way back to 2012, when Gold Beach leader Michael Winningham sought some help from an old friend to try and finish the group's latest album. Sam Cohen, who first helped Michael arrange a song when they were both sixteen years old, has gone on to produce the likes of Kevin Morby and Benjamin Booker, and his collaboration with Winningham quickly led to something bigger than either of them expected.

Time passed, keyboardist Carlos Orozco was recruited, ideas flowed, and whatever the end results were, it became obvious this was no longer Gold Beach. More musicians joined the rotating cast, numerous songs were recorded, and Palo Duro was born.

By last year, the band had come to the attention of Danger Mouse, who released their first single, "Darken The Glow" on his 30th Century label in March of this year. Now comes the band's first full-length, Ryou Canon, which expands on "Darken"'s driving world-funk and atmospheric drive.

After gaining support from Austin's very own KUTX naming Palo Duro the Artist of the Month for October, Ryou Cannon is off to their release on a strong note. Check in throughout the month for updates and video sessions on KUTX.
