Recipients of the Village Voice's award for Best Pop Band in New York 2014, PARLOUR TRICKS has been hailed as "the perfect combo of pretty and gritty" (The Wild Magazine). The seemingly incongruous combination of lead singer Lily's eclectic songwriting, powerhouse angel-choir harmonies, thundering bass, drums, synth, and impressionistic guitar work makes for a kind of indie pop symmetry that somehow sounds "50's nostalgic, 90's familiar, and 2020 progressive all at once" (The Most Definitely). With their "punchy, infectious, danceable rhythms, clean guitar, dirty synth, and heavenly voices" (Village Voice) it's not too hard to see why Spotify took a shine to them, calling their sound "Vintage pop for the future". The band's home base is New York City but they've been steadily making their way across the country. Notable 2014 tour stops include performances at Bonnaroo, Summerfest, South By Southwest, a Lollapalooza afterparty with Portugal. The Man, and hometown showcases at CBGB and CMJ Festivals. PARLOUR TRICKS travels to Nashville frequently to work with their producer, Emery Dobyns. Two of the tracks they created together, "Requiem" and "Lovesongs", were released as singles in 2014, while unreleased track "Belle Gunness" was chosen for a BMW commercial in the summer of 2013. A larger release is in the works for Spring 2015.
