Palma Violets formed in 2011 and cut their teeth playing gigs at their Lambeth art studio/squat Studio 180 before going on the road with Savages followed by a sold out UK tour and a string of festivals including Reading + Leeds, Secret Garden Party and Bestival.
Last month they released their debut single ‘Best of Friends’/’Last of the Summer Wine’ on limited edition CD single and purple vinyl, which was chosen as Radio 1 Zane Lowe’s ‘Hottest Record in the World’ and ‘Next Hype’.
