The project of Fresno-based singer/songwriter Nathan Taylor, Valley Palace started in 2019. Taylor is a self-admitted daydreamer, and the wispy sentimentalism that comes with wishing and hoping for something more is apparent in his dreamy pop music. Inspired by films from the ‘80s and ‘90s like Pretty in Pink, Can’t Hardly Wait, and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Valley Palace takes an optimistic and endearingly honest look at life, chronicling his own coming-of-age period as a teenager entering their early twenties.
