After several successful releases on indie labels Kimosciotic and Fry k Beat , the art galleries soon turned to sold out venues when PANTHER, now signed to the Kil Rock Stars label, caught the attention of headliners like THE GOSSIP and RATATAT. Panther is the two-headed effort of Charlie Salas-Humara (The Planet The) on vocals, cello, guitar, and keys and Joe Kelly (31 Knots) on drums. Panther have played on bills as varied as opening slots from PEACHES to WOLF EYES. Known live for his unusual chaotic dancing, Charlie's eccentric noodlings involve a melting pot of funk, disco, soul, and electro.
