Noel catches up with Steve Butler of Smash Palace. Steve and his brother, Brian, formed the new wave band, Quincy, in the 1970s. They released their self-titled debut album in 1980. Quincy Jones sent the band a trademark infringement cease-and-desist order and Quincy were no longer allowed to use the name and broke up soon afterward. The brothers formed Smash Palace a few years later and released their self-titled debut album in 1985 featuring the single "Living on the Borderline." The lineup has changed over the years but Steve has remained the one constant. Their latest album, 21, was released in 2021.
