In existence little over a year, the London quartet's striking debut single "Over Time", and a run of dates with Good Shoes at the end of last year served notice that WILD PALMS are serious contenders with a brace of diverse influences that include - but not limited to - CAN, BEEFHEART, SONIC YOUTH, TV ON THE RADIO, BILLY CHILDISH, LIQUID LIQUID, NEU!, NEW ORDER and TALKING HEADS. Says singer Lou Hill of the new partnership: "We just feel very happy with our situation and glad that we are signing with a label like One Little Indian whose stance on the music business seems to be completely in-line with our philosophy. The most attractive aspect of One Little Indian is that they allow us complete creative control, something that if we were not given I think it would be completely detrimental to us as people and as a band. One Little Indian were very enthusiastic from the very start and I hope we can repay that interest. We have the security of 3 albums and are being given the time and space to evolve and develop, which we are looking forward to eagerly. Here's to a very fruitful relationship." The band have been in the studio with Gareth Jones (GRIZZLY BEAR, CLINIC, INTERPOL, WIRE, DEPECHE MODE) working on fresh material for a September album release - expect to hear new single 'Deep Dive' soon.
