Mercury Prize and Brit Award winner Arlo Parks first came to the attention of
music press with her debut single ‘Cola’. It’s a breath-taking, tender, poetic
and confessional introduction to an artist just eighteen at the time of its
release.
The then London based singer demonstrated soul beyond her years and with
'Cola' the submissive tones of her powerful voice are laid atop slow guitar
melodies that beckon you to stop what you're doing and just listen. The track
is written about bad love - in Arlo’s words, "Cola is a reminder that betrayal is
inevitable when it comes to pretty people that think flowers fix everything".
‘george’, an ode to poet Byron was released in 2019 just weeks before signing
to Transgressive Records and set Arlo on the path to being one of the most
critically acclaimed artists of the year
