London singer-songwriter and poet Arlo Parks delves into her adolescence through the lens of sun-dappled indie pop, on debut Collapsed in Sunbeams. Self-described as “a series of vignettes and intimate portraits,” the album is inspired by Allen Ginsberg, Sylvia Plath, Jim Morrison and Fela Kuti – combining poetic lyricism with a shimmering guitar hooks and her halcyon vocals. It’s a heartrending debut effort from Parks, who is also bringing much needed representation to indie along the way, as well as a record that will be elevated further still when she plays it live, sometime in the hopefully not to distant future.
