Palmyra performed on our stage this past July. We almost never host touring bands two years in a row, but we’re making an exception for this exceptional band. They recently signed with John Prine’s Oh Boy Records and have announced their debut album, “Restless,” which releases March 25 on vinyl and CD, so we couldn’t say no to catching this band before they get too big for our stage.We love this band so much that we’re opening our 2025 season earlier than usual just to catch them in the area. This is your chance to catch Palmyra in an intimate setting.
PALMYRA:
Established in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, Palmyra captures the collective spirit of three Virginia natives: Teddy Chipouras, Mānoa Bell, and Sasha Landon.
Palmyra straddles at least two musical worlds. They are, on one hand, a band from the South that plays traditional instruments and indeed once lived in the old-time locus of Floyd, Virginia. Comparisons to and a kinship with The Avett Brothers and even Old Crow Medicine Show are inevitable. On the other hand, Palmyra writes about grief, gender dysphoria and identity, and coming of age in songs that flirt with soul, post-rock, and even emo; the South, too, is the place of My Morning Jacket, Band of Horses, Cat Power, and now, Palmyra.
The band’s first full length LP, Restless, is out March 2025 on Oh Boy Records. Framed by moments of struggle, solidarity, and hard-won growth, Restless is an unqualified ringer for anyone who loves the space where the roar of indie rock collides with raw folk.
