PALMA VIOLETS • Website /// PALMA VIOLETS • FaceBook ///

For a long time if you wanted to hear the most exciting new band in Britain, you knocked on a tall black door off the Lambeth Road.
An aging British Rail building – part art studio happening, part squat – Studio 180 was where south London’s Palma Violets were gestating, away from sunlight and the world at large.
A thrilling rock’n’roll four piece,from September 2011 they were holed-up here writing songs “their friends could dance to” and occasionally putting on celebratory, ecstatic parties about which word quickly spread.

Palma Violets are Sam Fryer (vocals/guitar), Chilli Jesson (vocals/bass), Pete Mayhew (keyboard) and Will Doyle (drums).
