2. Palace is one of the many monikers that has been used at one point or another by American singer and songwriter, Will Oldham (1970). From 1993 to 1997, Oldham performed and recorded in collaboration with dozens of other musicians under many different variations of Palace (Palace, Palace Flophouse, Palace Brothers, Palace Songs, Palace Music). From 1998 onwards he started calling himself Bonnie 'Prince' Billy.
