PALACE WINTER



“A band to listen out for” Lauren Laverne, BBC Radio 6 Music



“This is fast, urgent, plangent, with murmuring vocals and a hazy shade of wintry melancholia" The Guardian



Palace Winter are Copenhagen-based Australian Carl Coleman and Dane Caspar Hesselager.



Having played in bands separately for years, a mutual respect for each other’s styles encouraged them to start writing together. Carl coming from a song-writing background. Caspar, a producer and classically trained pianist. Both, however, appreciate a strong melody, which is evident throughout the atmospheric dark-pop they create.



Their debut single was released in 2015, followed by an EP and in the summer of 2016, their debut album, “Waiting for the World to Turn” had arrived. All released via Copenhagen-based label Tambourhinoceros.



The support that followed was wide spread. Number 1 on Hype Machine and overwhelming reviews from heavy hitters like The Guardian, NME and The Line of Best Fit. Radio support came from Guy Garvey, Lauren Laverne and Tom Ravenscroft at BBC 6 Music, KCRW, KEXP, Norway’s P3 and Denmark’s P6.



The band have successfully brought their cinematic psych-pop to the stage. With an increasing number of sold out live shows under their belts, fans have not been left disappointed by their hypnotic and mind-blowing live sets.



Having already supported Noel Gallagher and played Guy Garvey’s Meltdown, Roskilde, Green Man, Sziget in Budapest, Latitude and Secret Garden Party, amongst many others, Palace Winter are well placed to blow the roof off 2018.
