Petaluma

Petaluma is a musical ensemble from Sacramento, CA. The group was founded in 2015 by Rob Habel and Pat Sweeney, who have been collaborating within various projects since high school. Their shared love of experimental hip hop, electronica, and psychedelic pop formed the foundations of the deeply layered sound that became Petaluma's self-titled debut. The album has been described as "mesmerizing" and "hypnotic." Heralded by Walter L of MusicallyEnthused as "...a truly exciting release that reveals potent musicianship and vision." The group now includes Melissa Garcia on drums and percussion, David Baez on synths, keys, and bass, and Ty Marshall on guitar.
