One of the freshest new artistic voices standing out amongst the backdrop of the City of Brotherly Love’s many multi-faceted and musically talented artists. Archpalatine the singer, songwriter, pianist, performer, and charismatic band front-man Derek Anthony Wilson is poised to not only create a lane for himself and his bandmates (Anthony Pompey - vox, Eric Allenson - drums, Ben High - bass, & Dave Coulson - guitar) but also blaze a trail for creative risk takers, soulful story tellers, and theatrical musicians who challenge the old guard of musical gate keepers.

Archpalatine breaks down genre to create a new sound that may eloquently and appropriately be called “Histrionic Cosmic Soul.” The feel- good music gifted to the audience at an Archpalatine performance offers a long-time abandoned experience that can be enjoyed by every group of people from all walks of life, be it in the form of smiles on faces to dancing out of your seat.
