Parcels Release New Single ‘Summerinlove’ Ahead of Upcoming Album 'LOVED'

Australian indie pop band Parcels have shared their latest single, 'Summerinlove', a dreamy, reflective track that explores the emotions of longing after a breakup. This release marks a significant moment for the band, as it is part of their highly anticipated album 'LOVED', set to drop on September 12.

'Summerinlove' captures the vulnerable moments after a relationship ends, as the band reflects on the questions “Am I in love? Is this enough?” with layered harmonies and their signature retro sound. The track's lyrics delve into the post-breakup phase, where there's a mix of denial and hope, a hope that the past love might return, even though both parties know it’s truly over.

The inspiration for the song comes from a personal and collective reflection within the band. It was written during the emotional turmoil of coming to terms with the end of a relationship. Parcels describes it as a song about holding onto a memory while grappling with the reality of its loss. The track was recorded live in Golden Retriever Studios in Sydney, capturing an authentic, organic vibe that brings the track’s raw emotions to life.

In addition to the release of 'Summerinlove' the band has partnered with Bose and NME C25 for this single, an exciting collaboration that reflects the band’s commitment to delivering a high-quality listening experience. Bose, known for their premium sound technology, aligns perfectly with Parcels’ musical ethos creating an immersive, powerful sound that transports listeners into the heart of the track.

With the success of previous singles like 'Safeandsound' , 'Yougotmefeeling' and 'Leaveyourlove' anticipation for 'LOVED'has been growing exponentially, especially following their electrifying performance at Glastonbury. Described by Billboard as one of the festival’s biggest and grooviest crowds, Parcels are gearing up to take their new material on the road during their Australian tour, stopping at iconic venues like the Sydney Opera House Forecourt, Sidney Myer Music Bowl, and Riverstage.

Parcels’ journey has seen them perform with industry giants like Phoenix and Air, and they’ve accumulated over one billion streams across all platforms, establishing them as one of the most exciting bands in the indie pop scene. As they prepare for the release of 'LOVED', fans can expect a fresh, expansive sound while still staying true to the band’s roots.
