Palace

Palace have been making music together for over a decade. What started out as carefree jam sessions between Leo Wyndham, Rupert Turner and Matt Hodges in an airless studio in North London has burgeoned into a project with a global audience more akin to a community than a fanbase.

Their early EPs, Lost In The Night (2014) and Chase The Light (2015), were recorded in the band’s beloved studio, The Arch, and established a DIY ethos that remains intrinsic to the band. Four albums followed: So Long Forever (2016), Life After (2019), Shoals (2022) and Ultrasound (2024). Each explores a particular feeling in a particular place and time, from grief and the loss of a relationship to new love and light. Palace’s sound ranges from atmospheric and ethereal to grounded Blues and Americana, yet every song has something unmistakably Palace: an ineffability to the feelings conjured by the music. In a word, transcendent. Perhaps this feeling resonates with their loyal fans, who welcomed them home to a sold-out show at London’s Hammersmith Apollo by the time Palace made their Coachella debut in 2024.

In early 2025, Palace took a career leap that harkens back to their DIY origins. They released the Greyhound EP on their own label, Palace Presents, a collective they started in 2016 as a monthly night at The George Tavern in East London. It had quietly grown into something more intentional: a positive and protected space, as Leo described it, away from the usual constraints of the music industry. The EP followed a sold-out run across the USA and Canada, playing to growing crowds of dedicated fans.

Kid was released in April 2026, alongside the announcement of a 30-date USA and Canada tour in Fall 2026, culminating in a show at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. “Kid is about longing for a child an ocean away. It’s the ache we feel for our people when we’re separated from them. It doesn’t feel like a sadness or heaviness, but more an affirmation of that love, a primal release sung into the sunset as the road flies by.”

The journey from an airless studio in North London to the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles is a long one, and by doing things their way, Palace have managed to arrive still recognisably, unmistakably themselves.
