Alan Palomo aka Neon Indian joins AbNon host Ben Aqua to discuss the evolution of his unique music and aesthetic — from his humble beginnings singing Frank Sinatra duets with his dad to being transformed by Radiohead as a teenager to covering “Vamos a La Playa” in front of massive festival crowds.

We also coin the term “emotional italo disco” and host a sensual, romantic listening party featuring some of our favorite emotional italo tunes just 4 u. It’s soggy with existential music nerd commentary and plenty of dad jokes.
