Canadian artist Tess Parks will drop her forthcoming album And Those Who Were Seen Dancing on May 20th via one of our fave record labels, Fuzz Club, as well as Hand Drawn Dracula. This record follows Parks’ 2013 debut LP Blood Hot.
To coincide with the news, Tess Parks has also shared a video for her single ‘Happy Birthday Forever’. The visuals feature home videos of a very young Tess Parks, a little girl in fact. She is filmed whilst attending ballet lessons. The music itself is an upbeat and warming indie pop offering that feels oh so good. You can stream the video below.
Detailing her upcoming album, Tess Parks mentioned:
“In my mind, this album is like hopscotch. These songs were pieced together over time in London, Toronto and Los Angeles with friends and family between August 2019 and March 2021. So many other versions of these songs exist. The recording and final completion of this album took over two years and wow – the lesson I have learned the most is that words are spells. If I didn’t know it before, I know it now for sure. I only want to put good out into the universe.”
