Kay Hanley is the former lead singer of Boston alt-pop band, Letters To Cleo. Since the band's split, Kay has released three solo recordings and has provided songs and vocals for many film and TV projects, including Josie And The Pussycats. Multi-instrumentalist Linus Of Hollywood has an eclectic resume that began as the frontman for the influential pop/punk band Size 14. Since then, Linus has released five solo albums, started two labels (Franklin Castle and Crappy Records) and has built a career as an in demand producer and songwriter.

Long time fans of one another's work, Kay and Linus became acquainted while active participants in Los Angeles' thriving music community and decided to combine forces. Originally, their collaboration was intended to produce pop songs that other artists would record, but that idea was quickly scrapped when the music began to take on a cohesive sound and depth. They kept the material for themselves, tweaked the focus and continued writing as their new duo, Palmdale.
