Palm Ghosts

Palm Ghosts is a Nashville-based indie project masterminded by songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joseph Lekkas, blending moody post-punk, dream pop, and lo-fi sensibilities. Originally formed in Philadelphia around 2014, the project has evolved into a rotating collective of collaborators, channeling a retro-futuristic vibe that nods to 1980s alternative and shoegaze textures. Their discography—including recent releases like *Façades 4 - Decoder* and *Content Provider*—often explores themes of existential angst, societal disconnection, and dystopian undertones, all wrapped in reverb-drenched melodies and cinematic arrangements. Lekkas’ DIY ethos shines through in their home-recorded, genre-blurring work, which feels both nostalgic and eerily timely.

With a prolific output that includes the *Façades* EP series and genre-hopping covers like *Losing My Religion*, Palm Ghosts has carved a niche for atmospheric, introspective music that resonates with fans of artists like The Chameleons or The Cure. Their latest tracks continue to experiment with haunting synths, jangly guitars, and lyrical introspection, cementing their status as under-the-radar purveyors of darkly poetic indie rock.
