from The Mountain-Ear Podcast · host The Mountain-Ear Staff

Joey Palermino finds a special connectivity through the art of music. From sharing music with his parents to finding a community of musicians to perform with, building connections and friendships through music inspires him the most. Palermino’s instrument of choice has always been the guitar. A selftaught player, he especially embraced the instrument after college, living in Memphis and playing live and among friends.“Once I moved to Colorado, I found the music scene here, and especially the bluegrass picking scene,” says eightyear resident Palermino. “I really made some awesome friends and connections that really pushed me to go to the next level, if you will."Our theme song is courtesy of singer-songwriter Brittney Wagner.
