The Palm School/Barton Hills Choir was founded by former Palm Elementary School music teacher and choir director Gavin Tabone in 2003. For the past 7 years they have been known as simply the Palm School Choir but with Tabone's move next year to Barton Hills Elementary School, they've changed their name to the Palm School/Barton Hills Choir. Made up of 5th and 6th grade Austin Independent School District children and accompanied by local rock musicians, the choir has released 6 CDS featuring musicians who have performed with Lions, Polyphonic Spree, Spoon, Low Line Caller, Michael Clay Band, Rockland Eagles and many more. The choir has shared the stage with Lyle Lovett, Ruben Ramos, and Neil Young. They have been featured on the Today Show, KUT's Eklektikos, the Austin American-Statesman, and many other news outlets. They have performed at South by Southwest and regularly travel throughout Texas playing gigs. This year will be the fourth time the choir has performed at the Austin City Limits Music Festival and their performance will include arrangements of Flaming Lips, Wilco, and Beatles tunes as well as some of Tabone's original songs.
