John Parish has announced an appearance at the Colours Of Ostrava Festival (CZ) on July 20th.

Thrill Jockey records are releasing John’s new album ‘Bird Dog Dante’ on June 15th .  The fist single, a duet with PJ Harvey entitled ‘Sorry For Your Loss’ is already available for download & stream sold through Bandcamp :
​

John and the band will be playing shows in support of the album later in the year. 

"Parish records songs as they come to him, often with the intent of just capturing the idea.

“Like all of my records, Bird Dog Dante was recorded all over the place in odd situations, because I’ll have an idea somewhere and want to record it, then I actually end up liking the sound of that specific recording and want to incorporate it,” says Parish.

​While a few of the tracks began with the band in Toybox in Bristol, often they were then deconstructed in Parish’s home studio. John’s producer’s ear can focus on a small detail that captures his imagination, which then becomes the foundation to build the song around. On “Rachel,” “Aldous Harding’s beautiful backing vocals were recorded on my phone backstage at her Jools Holland show."
