Salo Panto is a psychedelic rock band with shapeshifting powers and chameleon-like appeal who released their debut album Parallel Narratives in 2023 with great fanfare. The songs feature intricate, interwoven guitar work, dreamy lyrics and plenty of crashing percussion. On the title track, an upbeat tune filled with lovely layers of horns and cascading strings, they sing about letting it all go: “Don’t want to hear anything about the shape I’m in.” Joe Garwig writes the songs with bandmates Max Doyle, Ed Beach and David Kudelka, bringing the Pacific Northwest psychedelia into full form.
