Cale Parks is gaining some serious props from me. His sophomore album Sparklace was a highlight for me last year and his other two bands, White Williams and Aloha, are not any slouches either. Now he’s dropped a new track, “Places We’ve Created”, just for his fans to gobble up. Parks blasts his church choir/beach [...]

Some might recognize Cale Parks from the great indie band Aloha or perhaps most recently as the live drummer for White Williams. I'm a big fan of White Williams and have definitely loved me up some Aloha in my time so naturally I perked up when I heard Cale Parks was releasing his sophomore album. His sound falls somewhere in between the two aforementioned bands - a slow Beach Boys dreamy pop...

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it, does it make a sound? What if the tree is Cale Parks and the forest is Great Scott? What then?Wednesday night’s concert took a step towards answering that age old question, as a late night show from Cale Parks, Lemonade, and Earthquake Party fell not on deaf ears, but on few ears at all. I have never been to a show at Great Scott as .

CMJ '07 was the last we saw of multi-talented drummer/composer Cale Parks, on a night he joined the (much missed) Narrator in a sweaty subterranean show supporting his solo debut Illuminated Manuscript. You may have heard from him since -- lending his sticks to the White Williams live experience, or in service of his day gig with Aloha -- but this fall he's putting the focus back on his particu...

[10-24-2009] Maybe it was the open bar. Or maybe everyone was just too weary of industrial posturing by Saturday of CMJ week to spend another night trying to make networking fun. In any case, this show, put together through the unlikely partnership of a men's clothing store, a party promotion juggernaut, and a nondescript photo studio somehow managed to put forward a great lineup and an atmosph...

To Swift Mars samples the ‘80s pop zeitgeist to various effect, but is strongest in its least nostalgic moments.Cale Parks' latest EP and third solo release To Swift Mars takes the sonic cues and flourishes of '80s synthpop and refracts them through a lens of fin de sicle discontent, with a result that bears a degree of resemblance to new wave influences Depeche Mode and the Smiths, but might b

Tonight the only place you should be or should want to be is the Cale Parks show at the Talking Head here in Baltimore. Lemonade, Smarts, and Dope Body are also set to go on. Also down in DC Ninjasonik, Cerebral Ballzy, and Noon:30 play DC9. That’s about all that’s on my radar. Hows about [...]
