Parabola West is back with her new single "Calling Your Name". The artist persona of New Zealand-based American singer and songwriter Amy Tucker West. Drawing inspiration from Celtic and Nordic folk roots, electronica, and organic sounds, Parabola West's music is a lush soundscape of layered melodies. The single "Calling Your Name" will be officially released on 6th December, but you can already give it a listen right on this page.
This new release follows up Parabola West's 2017 EP Purity Of Weakness and lead single "Fire", which was released both digitally and on CD. Her debut EP Did You Hear? was released in 2014. Often piano-driven, her music is laced with hints of Celtic and Scandinavian influences and a dash of fantasy.
""Calling Your Name" expresses the torment of loving someone who has become emotionally numb. Ask anyone on a significant dose of anti-depressants and they'll tell you about the numbing - that slow, subtle nothingness that keeps life ticking over without incident but turns down all the colour", says West. The lyrics "you are a wilderness frozen from me" kind of sum up the bad times, when you just can't reach the heart until the ice melts." Listen to "Calling Your Name" in the player below.
