Palace is a musical project linked to American singer‑songwriter Will Oldham (born 24 December 1970). The name was used for a series of early recordings before Oldham adopted other monikers such as Bonnie ’Prince’ Billy. While Oldham’s work is generally classified as folk/indie, the project appears on a rock‑oriented platform for reference purposes. The project is not a traditional band; it functions primarily as a solo outlet for Oldham’s songwriting and recording activities.
Specific details about the formation of Palace are not provided in the supplied sources. It is known that the moniker was employed by Will Oldham during the early phase of his career, likely in the early 1990s.

The available sources do not describe Palace’s musical style or influences. Based on Will Oldham’s broader oeuvre, the recordings under the Palace name are generally lo‑fi, folk‑inflected, and alternative in nature, but precise genre classification for this project is not documented.
