Since re-appearing last year, Michael Hopkins and Andrew Lloyd, aka Planet Parade have sculpted some wonderful sounds, both live and on record.
‘Blue Sky’ is a highlight I remember from their Block T show last year with us, an unabashed summer jam with Vampire Weekend-style melodies and breezy instrumentation. Drink this tropical taste in.
The song is released digitally on August 28th.
