Words:
Emily Carter

Palaye Royale are steaming ahead into their "boldest era yet" with a powerful new single and video, Paranoid.

The trio reveal that the meaning of their latest track is "about all the little insecurities in your head holding you back from living your life. It’s about the doubt and that voice in your head telling you that you cannot do something. It’s about the journey to silence that voice and your fears and to rise above it."

Paranoid was first premiered on the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show with Daniel P. Carter on Sunday night, with the Harrison Sanborn and Michael Bolton-directed video released soon after (watch that now). Palaye are currently 'readying their fourth full-length studio album' following 2020's The Bastards, so watch this space…
