P!lot is excited to bring their indie rock pop tunes to the special and eclectic Swanson's Warehouse.
About
P!lot is an indie pop project with a quirky and ethereal sound — accented unique instruments: Casio, ukulele, saxophone, mellotron, omnichord. P!lot has been compared to artists like Chairlift, Regina Spektor, Frankie Cosmos, Oh Land and Geneva Jacuzzi.
Originally, Brooklyn-based, P!lot flew down South in 2019, and now resides in Charleston, SC. Erel Pilo leads the project by writing the songs and singing leads. The band includes Kate Collins (omnichord / vocals), Jaylen Davis (saxophone), Suzie Raga (drums) and Aron Simons (bass).
P!lot's debut album, “Fake Hangover” an exploration of themes of femininity, felines, and fame, was released in Jan 2025. They are spending the spring of 2026 on their regional Flowers Tour.
