Indie rock darlings Palomar formed in 1998 with Rachel Warren, Sasha Alcott, and Matt Hauser. They hooked up with Television's Fred Smith to independently issued a self-titled effort in 1999. Christina Prostano, formerly of Warren's old band Trixie Belden, joined the band in time for the CMJ Music Marathon Showcase in fall 2000. Sasha left shortly thereafter, leaving Sarah Brockett of the Philadelphia rock outfit, Overlord, to fill her shoes. Palomar played dates in and around Northeastern America for the next two years, sharing the stage with bands like the Strokes, Clinic, Luna, Burning Airlines, and the Microphones. A second full-length, Palomar II, appeared in summer 2002, after which Matt Hauser left the group. Filling his shoes with Dale W. Miller, they released Palomar III: Revenge of Palomar in the summer of 2004. ~ MacKenzie Wilson
