Paloalto

Paloalto, formed in Los Angeles, California, was fronted by James Grundler. Grundler had previously been in The Din Pedals before signing with Rick Rubin’s American Recordings. The group’s first single, “Sonny”, appeared in 2000, followed by the self‑titled debut album Paloalto the same year, establishing a foothold in the United States alternative rock scene. In 2003, the band released Heroes and Villains, which reached number 14 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart, featuring the track “Breathe In” that appeared on The O.C. and the film Hellboy. Subsequent releases included the single “Fade Out/In” in 2002 and the self‑released single “Don’t Give Up Before You Start” in 2014 after a brief reunion at The Viper Room. Post‑band, Grundler continued recording under Golden State, while Paloalto’s catalog remained cited in film and television soundtracks such as The Perfect Score and the Daredevil: The Album soundtrack.
