About

Palace unifies indie rock and blues rock into a single genre that envelopes you like a London fog. Formed in 2012 in the UK by Leo Wyndham, Rupert Turner, Will Dorey, and Matt Hodges, the buzz began after their first gig. "A part of us thought we might be the s***tiest band in the world," Wyndham revealed to DIY Magazine. "The moment we started playing, we could see it in people's faces. They liked it."

Lost in the Night, the band's 2014 debut EP, set Palace's cinematic tone in stone. Drenched in reverb, Wyndham's vocals recall Jeff Buckley. He admits that he's "obsessed" with the late singer, who opened his eyes -- and ears -- to performing with all his emotional vulnerabilities on display. He also counts Kurt Cobain and underground singer/songwriter Daniel Johnston as influences.

The 2015 follow-up, Chase the Light, landed Palace more radio play on the BBC. The subsequent full-length albums, So Long Forever and Life After, were somber affairs. Palace recorded Shoals during the pandemic, which brought the band -- now a three-piece -- even closer together. It also forced Wyndham to confront his own struggles with mental health. "My brain was like a conveyor belt of negative thoughts and a feeling of purposelessness," he told NME. "When music was taken away, I started to wonder what the f**k my purpose was." His physical health was deteriorating as well -- Wyndham caught COVID-19 while making the album and suffered from inflamed lungs for nine months. Ultimately, the isolation added a new depth to Palace's music, and it's one they can't wait to share with fans. The band has announced plans to tour in the U.S. in late 2022.

    Consistently beautiful!

    I only started listening to Palace in 2020. I've been to see them twice in Toronto since. They were incredible on both occasions. What's strange is their new material is just as good as the old! Can't wait to see them again!

    Amazing talent

    by J. L. on 2023-06-13

    Saw Palace at the Beanfield theatre 2023/06/13. The artist is super talented, I was mesmerized. I just wish they did a better soundcheck because it was very difficult to hear the vocals clearly, the mic echoed too much making it impossible to hear the lyrics as the words jumbled together. Same issue for the opening acts, and since I didn’t know their songs, I couldn’t figure out what they were saying at all

    Chills

    by Tyler on 2022-05-12The Danforth Music Hall - Toronto

    I have seen a lot of live shows, but this one was the most ethereal experience of my life. Palace sound amazing live, and I got full body chills multiple times during the show. This band is what live music should be. The crowd was amazing too, and there were a few songs where the whole Danforth was singing along; it was a great communal experience, and I recommend seeing them to anybody! 10/10

    Magical Performance

    by A. G. on 2022-05-12The Danforth Music Hall - Toronto

    These lads can play, and the energy they inspired in the crowd was unmatched by any show I’ve seen before. The gentleman they had as a stand in for bass played his part perfectly. 10/10 night
