New Cale Parks “Sparklace”

Some might recognize Cale Parks from the great indie band Aloha or perhaps most recently as the live drummer for White Williams.  I’m a big fan of White Williams and have definitely loved me up some Aloha in my time so naturally I perked up when I heard Cale Parks was releasing his sophomore album.  His sound falls somewhere in between the two aforementioned bands – a slow Beach Boys dreamy pop mentality of Aloha and the unorthodox Zappa like approach White Williams brings to the table.  Cale Parks’ new album Sparklace, out via Polyvinyl, is full of long dark tunnels, dusty basements, midnight creek walking, digital solar systems, lithium powered lightning bugs, and inner city cab rides.  It’s a modest gem of an album that mirrors the inky frigid yet still bustling New York winter.
