DOWNWARD ROAD ************* Distr. : NE - Sonic Rendezvous Style : indie / alternative / PPDW 19 PATRICK PARK HERE/GONE LP 06.2019 01. FIVE ALARM 02. EVERYTHING FALLS APART 03. WHIRLWIND 04. NO ONE MAKES IT 05. LOVE LOVER LOVE 06. I FEEL A FIRE 07. STRAIGHT 08. READY FOR THE PARTY 09. LONG SHOT 10. WINNING Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Patrick Park returns with a new full-length, Here/Gone. For Here/Gone, Park tapped producer Rob Schnapf (Beck, Kurt Vile, Elliott Smith) for the first time since 2007's acclaimed Everyone's in Everyone, and the pair distilled Park's introspective folk songs to classic voice and guitar combinations highlighted with string arrangements by Bobby Halvorson (Van Dyke Parks). With the sparse production allowing Park's lyrics to remain front-and-center, the tracks on Here/Gone materialize as letters to his newborn son and aural reckonings with the brevity of life. Rolling Stone Country calls the lead single, "Everything Falls Apart, "an Elliott Smith-worthy folksong." Additionally, Billboard recently premiered album standout, "Love Lover Love," which features guest vocals from Warpaint's Emily Kokal and was recently featured as KCRW's Today's Top Tune. http://www.sonic.nl/sonic_nl/mailing/924upcsh.htm =======================================================================================
