Frontman, Tommy Cantillon explains, "we just spent a day playing songs and shooting video with Matt in his studio at the Sound City complex. We played some songs from the new album and a few covers we had been playing live. When we started releasing the videos, the response was great and the whole thing really felt cohesive and special, so we decided to put it out."
Over the past month the band has released four videos from the sessions, including "Somebody Make a Move" which premiered on Buzznet, and the band's cover of Rihanna's "Stay" which wound up on the website for LA's My 104.3FM. Last week American Songwriter premiered the video for "Devil To Pay." On December 3rd, the band will also release the video of their cover of Talking Heads' "This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)." It's a cover the band has been playing every night of the tour and finally fans will have a chance to take the track home.
Tommy & The High Pilots is Tommy Cantillon (vocals / guitar), Michael Cantillon (keys / guitar /vocals) and Matt Palermo (drums / vocals).
"The band put on a fantastic performace that made you want to dance around with frontman Tommy Cantillon; be sure to keep an eye out on this rising band." - Buzznet, The Roxy Los Angeles show review
"Santa Barbara's Tommy & The High Pilots work a hook like a group weaned on 1990s radio rock. But they throw inspiration from '80s great too: Mellencamp and Pety on previous albums, Peter Gabriel on Only Human." - The Pitch KC
"Bright, buoyant Southern California pop from the group's crowd-funded album, Only Human, has a near-irresistible chorus." - USA Today, They Playlist
