Attendees will have an opportunity to enjoy rooftop views, a café, and a cash bar prior to the program. Sweating under the strobes at Midnight Lovers in LA, dancing to the bass beneath the K Bridge in Greenpoint, finding new faces at Venue MOT in London - these are the dark, enveloping spaces giving life to Arlo Parks’ powerful third album, Ambiguous Desire. Over the past two years, Parks immersed herself in nocturnal spaces where she could be whoever she wanted, losing herself on the dancefloor and emerging inspired. Referencing everything from the queer hedonism of NYC’s Paradise Garage to the moody nocturnal British beats of The Streets and Burial, the glittering synth catharsis of LCD Soundsystem, and rooted house grooves of Theo Parrish, Ambiguous Desire is Parks at her most confident and experimental. Bursting onto the scene with her 2019 debut EP Super Sad Generation, London-born Parks won the Mercury Music Prize for her 2021 album Collapsed in Sunbeams, was named a Breakthrough Artist at the 2021 Brit Awards, and received Grammy and Ivor Novello nominations. After finishing her 2024 New York tour, she collaborated with producer Baird (Brockhampton, Kevin Abstract) on the album, with additional production from Paul Epworth, Buddy Ross, and Andrew Sarlo. Like descending into the thrill of close-knit new bodies or emerging from the bass into blistering daylight, Ambiguous Desire is a soundtrack to unguarded self-expression. A life-affirming new work from one of music’s most irrepressible voices.
