Palace

PALACE ARE BACK WITH “KID” AND MASSIVE TOUR OF USA + CANADA

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 that has amassed 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 aforementioned studio, The Arch, and established a DIY ethos that remains intrinsic to the spirit of the band to this day. Four albums followed; So Long Forever (2016), Life After (2019), Shoals (2022) and Ultrasound (2024): each one a musical exploration of a particular feeling in a particular place during a particular time; ranging from grief and the loss of a relationship to the emergence of new love and light. Consequently, it's not easy to sonically classify Palace. Their sound varies from the atmospheric and ethereal to the more grounded notes of Blues and Americana, yet in every song there is still something remarkably identifiable as Palace: an ineffability to the feelings conjured up by the music. In a word, transcendent. Perhaps it is this feeling of transcendence which resonates so deeply with their supporters; loyal fans who, by the time Palace had made their Coachella debut in 2024, welcomed them home to a sold-out show at London’s Hammersmith Apollo. 

In early 2025, Palace took a career leap that harkens back to their DIY origin. They released the Greyhound EP on their own label, Palace Presents - a collective they'd started in 2016 as a monthly night at The George Tavern in East London, which 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 to growing crowds of dedicated fans.

Kid was released in April 2026, together with the announcement of a 30 date tour of the USA and Canada in the Fall of 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
