Portland’s Panther began as a one-man project but on the new album, 14KT God, Panther is now a two-headed beast comprised of Charlie Salas-Humara (The Planet The) on vocals, cello, guitar, and keys and Joe Kelly (31 Knots) on drums. Twice the fun basically.

For those of you non-Portland based readers here’s a snip from the official PR blurb - “Panther landed on bills as varied as opening slots from Peaches to Wolf Eyes. The monstrous throb of the beats matched by Charlie’s intensity bring a sense of religious visitation to any room Panther humps the floor in. His panic-driven falsetto howling non-sequiturs about paranoid sexuality make his jams hysterical, compelling but most importantly danceable.” Now you know…. and the album comes out on Kill Rock Stars on February 19th.
