“Most of the songs were created by taking long improvisations and moulding them through our own editing,” vocalist and guitarist Austin Brown explained recently.
“The biggest asset we have as artists is the band. After 10 years together, our greatest instrument is each other. The purest expression of Parquet Courts is when we are improvising.”
Parquet Courts will tour in the UK and Ireland in June 2022 as part of their world tour, including dates in Birmingham, Glasgow and Leeds.
