We had the pleasure of interviewing Palace over Zoom video!\xa0

Palace share their profound and pensive new album Shoals, out today on Avenue A / Fiction. Shoals is the UK band\u2019s love letter to fear and the fullness of life one experiences when facing it down. Unsurprisingly, the sea was a major inspiration, as the record posits the ocean\u2019s violent yet beautiful energy as the ebb and flow between sheer panic and euphoric relief.

As frontman Leo Wyndham explains: \u201c\u2018Shoals\u2019 is a record about confronting our own fears and anxieties. Through the pandemic we were confronted more than ever with ourselves with little distraction, suddenly seeing who we are in the rawest of forms. It held a mirror up to our flaws and imperfections and forced us to see the real 'us'.

The record symbolizes how our minds can have beautiful yet dangerous depths, like the ocean, and how our fears and thoughts are like shoals of fish that move and shift constantly from place to place; chaotic, often untameable and unpredictable.\u201d

\u2018Shoals\u2019 is comprised of 12 tracks, and in addition to \u2018Friends Forever\u2019 the album will include the singles, \u2018Shame On You\u2019, \u2018Where Sky Becomes Sea\u2019, \u2018Fade\u2019, \u2018Lover (Don\u2019t Let Me Down)\u2019 and \u2018Gravity\u2019. The album\u2019s release will kick off Palace\u2019s biggest tour yet, with sold-out dates across the UK, Europe, and the US, including their biggest show to date at the O2 Brixton Academy and US tour dates at NYC\u2019s Webster Hall, DC\u2019s 9:30 Club, Austin\u2019s Empire Garage, and The Fonda in Los Angeles.
