New Zealand indie rockers PARK RD are about to take their vibrant sound to the next level with the announcement of their highly-anticipated debut album 'The Novel'. Set for release on May 24th, the album is accompanied by the infectious new single 'Call Me Up', a track showcasing the band's knack for crafting irresistible hooks.
'Call Me Up,' bursting with joyous energy, offers a glimpse into the pre-party excitement that is woven into the album's tapestry. Lead singer Tom Chamberlain describes it as a spontaneous creation, "'Call Me Up' was the last song to come from the album... I remember dancing around the room ... The song is about getting ready before a night out, sometimes getting ready is just as fun as the night out for me.”
The single comes complete with a nostalgic, coming-of-age music video, underscoring the band's penchant for relatable narratives. Fans who want to own this piece of PARK RD history can pre-save the album and score a limited-edition vinyl.
PARK RD are no strangers to the Aussie music scene, having impressed crowds at SXSW Sydney last year. They'll be returning for a massive tour supporting The Rions alongside Blusher, starting May 31st in Melbourne and wrapping up in Sydney on June 16th.
'The Novel' promises to be a personal and dynamic collection of songs. “It feels like its own little world. The main theme of the album is definitely love,” the band reflects. Expect a sonic journey that blends timeless storytelling with contemporary energy, from the tender 'Postcard' to the infectious 'Call Me Up'.
Their meticulous approach is evident, adding unique layers of sound: "Once we had all the main instruments, we would add 'the vibes' and sprinkle little details like synths or guitar parts that only happen once in the song."
PARK RD's star is clearly on the rise. From their stellar EPs to captivating live shows at major festivals, the band is ready to solidify their status. 'The Novel' is poised to be their breakthrough moment, and their upcoming tours will undoubtedly win over legions of new fans in both Australia and New Zealand.
