============================
Malcolm Palmer is a storyteller and social critic whose songs range from emotional character-driven ballads to soulful pleas to charged rock songs to funk and hip-hop influenced grooves. His sound is a familiar, gritty, classic sound that evokes sepia tones, vinyl, and smoke. His lyrics are provocative, sharp, and often chilling. His voice is soft as an angel one moment and dirty as the devil’s the next.
Between the Womb and the Tomb (orange van records, 2005) is an exploration of folk/hip-hop, if you will, with elements of soul, funk and rock. Palmer says, “…both [folk and hip-hop] are music of the people, for the people… the many neglected, not the few privileged.” This mentality and the record itself have struck a chord with various musical communities and have garnered critical success as well as airplay on over two hundred college stations.
