Palace step up with new EP ‘Chase The Light’

On their second EP, ‘Chase the Light’, North London four-piece Palace go beyond initial buzz with a serious first step.

The follow-up to last year’s ‘Lost in the Night’ sees Leo Wyndham and co. furthering their spacious, romantic and effect-doused pop going up a few notches. On the one hand, songs like opener ‘Head About The Water’ and stirring lead ‘Kiloran’ are potential arena-dwellers, but they’re also night lurkers, strangers tracing back their own steps when everyone else is fast asleep.

Streaming in full on DIY, the release spans from crystallised anthemia to moody balladry (‘Settle Down’) and drunken acoustic swansong ‘Chase the Light’. It’s a big-spanning EP, tracking all of Palace’s sides to date while paving the way for a new direction.
