Here’s what has been said so far:

“They're one of the tightest, most together bands I've seen in ages. You could spend an age trying to pin them down for a pigeon hole, but you won't do it. The references are all there - a dash of Talking Heads here, a sprinkling of Strokes there, a touch of Radiohead now and then. Fact is that Palace Ballet have mastered a pretty timeless brand of guitar pop that manages to be sophisticated, clever and downright goddamned catchy.”
IN THE CITY 09 REVIEW

“Theres a song called 'Some Girls' by Palace Ballet which I think is as immediately catchy as it gets. But if that doesn’t do it for you give 'Novel' a listen. Once you hear the chorus you’ll want to hear it again. A bit like smack for the ears. Theres no band that springs to mind to compare them to, which is always a good thing. I’ll just say they sound good and leave it at that.”
NEW-MUSIC-SCOTLAND.co.uk

“Palace Ballet were tight-tight-tight and played out disjointed staccato rhythms and confident performances with beautiful male vocals”
THE LIST

“Palace Ballet make tight, meticulous indie rock with a list of influences that runs from David Byrne to Devendra Banhart”
THE SCOTSMAN

“There’s a bit of a Post-Arctic Monkeys vibe here”
STEVE LAMACQ (We hope he meant the 2nd album)

“Been listening to this demo a lot this week. The closest sound that springs to mind is perhaps that of The Strokes”
JIM GELLATLY

“…Like how you mixed some reggae into that song…”
VIC GALLOWAY

“Now, here is a band that knows how to play together. Drawing on numerous foreign influences - whether musical or literary - if it wasn't, ironically, for their vocal harmonies, you'd swear they weren't Scottish”

Here are some things we will be doing…

'Gabriel' by Palace Ballet from Palace Ballet on Vimeo.

‘Come Home’ by Palace Ballet from Palace Ballet on Vimeo.

Palace Ballet consider themselves champions of a genre they like to call “New Old Shit” which is to say, without sounding redundantly retro, Palace Ballet write traditional, catchy pop songs. Tired of a music industry where success hinges on how well you pout, pucker up and kiss the appropriate ass, they subscribe to the old-fashioned idea a good tune lies at the heart of any intention. While PB enjoy the classic influence of Talking Heads, George Harrison, The Band and Buddy Holly, they have been compared to the modern sounds of Arctic Monkeys (Steve Lamacq), The Strokes (Jim Gellatly) and Devendra Banhart (The Scotsman). The band’s recorded output to date has been well-received, with air-play on Radio One, BBC Introducing and XFM as well as being featured in The Mill’s cinema ad campaign over the summer. Whilst poised to record a debut EP, Palace Ballet are perhaps best enjoyed live. PB gigs are about good times with timeless pop delivered like a flurry of well-thrown punches, and dancing ‘til your socks are holey. Currently venturing out of their Glasgow comfort-zone for shows further afield, they shouldn’t be missed, because while they generally don’t “make ‘em like they used to”...PALACE BALLET do!

oh right, don't know what your experience was of The Doghouse, but they usually decent, maybe it was just a bad night.  They've actually moved to another venue in-town now, although still under the same name.  You also have Dexters which is not bad also.  And there are other places that put on gigs a lot such as Chambers and Hustlers.  I do the odd band-night as-well, recently had a couple of late-night ones at Soul Nightclub, which went pretty well....

Hey Folks,
Think the sunset rubdown gig is £9, which is pretty steep, but then they are an amazing band plus you get to see us too. 
Probably best just pay to see them though, we don't want the money. If we don't see you we'll steal their towels for you to smell afterwards.
