Piano Prodigy Greyson Chance Returns To His Roots in New Song
Share
Critically acclaimed singer-songwriter Greyson Chance will return this summer with the release of his new single “Palladium,” available June 23rd across all streaming platforms. “Palladium” marks the first single from Chance’s forthcoming and highly anticipated third studio album of the same name, which is set for release this fall on Lowly.
Recorded in Nashville, “Palladium” impeccably captures Chance’s raw, soulful, and perfectly pitched vocal prowess, harkening back to the show stopping energy that initially put the piano prodigy on the map. Matched with his well-crafted, reflective, and at times melancholic songwriting capabilities, “Palladium” finds Chance arriving at a new stage in his now 10-plus year career.

“The song is inspired by an ancient Greek myth I had researched when I was in college studying archaeology. When I was writing the lyric, I thought of how the myth relayed back to my own life. ‘Palladium’ is about protecting the most sacred parts of yourself, which in this case, is my creativity as an artist. Throughout my entire career, I have been told what my music should sound like. And with this song and this album, I cut out all of that noise.”

“Nothing brings me more joy to be premiering new music at WeHo Pride and at the Outloud Fest,” stated an ecstatic Chance for this coming weekend. “I am excited to reintroduce myself and to bring a dynamic show to the festival. This show marks a completely new era for me, and I am just grateful to still be here doing what I love.”
Palladium follows Chance’s critically acclaimed 2019 album portraits, which has to date accumulated over 100+ million streams, and topped #5 on iTunes’ Pop Charts, #1 on Apple’s Music Breaking Pop Playlist, and #3 on Apple Music’s Best of the Week Playlist upon its release. The album marked a long-awaited return for Chance and was followed by a Word Tour that included 70+ sold out dates in North America, Europe, SE Asia, and China.
A native of Edmond, Oklahoma, Greyson Chance came into the national spotlight in 2010 after an unforgettable performance of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” that since has been viewed by over 70 million people on YouTube. Since then, the acclaimed recording artist reached over 100 million views online all before the age of 16, and to date has made multiple appearances on The Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, CBS This Morning, Good Morning America, and The Today Show to name a few. In 2020, Chance opened up about his struggles with an eating disorder and revealed to People Magazine that he would go 48 to 72 hours at a time without eating. Now recovered, Chance uses his platform to be a resource and champion for others in similar situations and has become a strong advocate for mental health awareness. In 2017, Chance came out to the public as gay and credits his family for making it a loving experience. Knowing that others within the LGBTQ community do not have as strong of a support system, he’s made alliances with a number of organizations including The Ally Coalition, which supports the LGBTQ community, and the Human Rights Campaign National Gala, among others. Additional charities Chance has collaborated with include Stand Up To Cancer, Make-A-Wish, and Charity: Water.
