About
Australian electropop group Parcels recently delivered a captivating Tiny Desk concert, showcasing their diverse musical talents. The band, known for their eclectic mix of guitars, synths, basslines, drums, and four vocalists, surprised with a stripped-down rendition of their song "Leaveyourlove" to kick off the performance. Parcels' journey began in Byron Bay, where high school friends Louie Swain, Patrick Hetherington, Noah Hill, Anatole Serret, and Jules Crommelin formed the band before relocating to Berlin. The group's music is a unique blend of electropop and disco-soul, drawing inspiration from a variety of genres.
Parcels gained recognition after collaborating with Daft Punk on their 2017 single "Overnight," which marked a significant milestone in their career. The band's self-titled debut album in 2018 featured tracks like "Tieduprightnow," "Bemyself," and "Lightenup," solidifying their place in the music scene. Over the years, Parcels have toured extensively, opening for bands like Two Door Cinema Club and Phoenix, while also headlining their own shows across Europe. Their distinctive sound has been compared to iconic bands such as the Beatles, the Beach Boys, and Steely Dan, showcasing a blend of vintage and modern influences.
Parcels' latest endeavors include the release of singles like "Free," "Comingback," and "Somethinggreater," leading up to their second album, "Day/Night," which dropped in November 2021. With a world tour planned for 2022 and the announcement of their upcoming third studio album, "Loved," the band continues to captivate audiences with their dynamic performances and retro-inspired sound.
