Hailing from Paris, France, Caravan Palace, are widely adored for both their musical prowess and the exhilarating experience they deliver, In about 15 years, the band has grown from a parisian jive sensation to a globalized pop act melding all kinds of influences and capable of tearing the roof off any venue or festival tent!.
The band initially started as a trio, fusing contemporary electronic beats with musical influences from vintage jazz sounds. Their ability to craft lush compositions with a variety of instruments and recording techniques quickly made a stir and, with the help of emerging social networks, they soon completed their lineup while seeing their demos get traction in the plugged-in community. After extensive touring in 2007, including performances at the Django Reinhardt Jazz Festival, their presence in the Paris music scene grew, leading to a recording contract with Café de la Danse.
Their self-titled debut studio album received critical acclaim for its authentic jazz elements and unique electronic flair. The album soon went platinum in France where the band's live performances gained momentum, with concert tickets selling rapidly even with minimal promotion. The subsequent album, “Panic,” was released in 2012 and swiftly became a fan favorite. It contributed significantly to the band's success on a more global scale, enabling them to participate in festivals like Coachella, Dour, or Paleo, as well as sell out club shows in most major European and North American cities.
Their third studio album, cryptically titled <I°_°I>, marked a shift for the band from a live sensation to a stats mastodon with the tracks “Lone Digger”, “Wonderland”, “Comics” and “Aftermath”, amassing billions of streams online.
Throughout their career Caravan Palace have consistently defied convention to become pop mainstays while keeping their cool, innovating their sound and refusing to follow the rules. The next logical step was for them to launch their own label Lone Diggers to release their fourth album Chronologic in 2019 featuring the hit singles Miracle and Moonshine.
With their new album Gangbusters Melody Club released in March 2024, the parisians will hit the road again this year!
