Damon Castillo is a songwriter, musician, producer, and mixer based in San Luis Obispo, a town on the Central Coast of California that National Geographic and Oprah Winfrey deemed "the happiest place in the country". As an artist, he leads the Damon Castillo Band, whose jazz-informed rock, funk, and soul paints a sun-bleached portrait of life and love in the Golden State. The band's albums include Mess of Me, Laurel Lane, Live at the Mission, and Revolving Door, which feature the work of his long-time band as well as Grammy Award-winning producer Ross Hogarth; Grammy Award-winning mixer F. Reid Shippen; and guest musicians like Sheila E., Aaron Sterling, and Sean Hurley.

Apart from recording and touring with the band, Castillo owns and operates Laurel Lane, a studio where he produces and mixes albums for countless artists and composes music that has appeared in national campaigns for Target, Starbucks, Miller Lite, MTV, and many others.

Capturing the excitement of both a brand-new love and a brand-new song, Damon Castillo’s latest single, “My Kind of Jam”, is the perfect R&B/Funk/Pop companion for those summer barbecues, afternoon cruises, and late night dance parties. The song has Prince style direct-recorded guitars, funky p-bass, and retro Juno synths, and features the virtuosic talk-box of Swatkins (Allen Stone, Scary Pockets). Two alternative versions of the single will follow. Find him at damoncastillo.com.
