FIRST SINGLE 'DREAMER' OUT TODAY
STREAM/SHARE 'DREAMER' HERE
Vancouver musician Lola Parks is making her dreams a reality with the release of her new single ‘Dreamer', out today on all digital platforms. The track is the first official single from her new album No Apologies, which is set for release on September 25th.
Lola Parks was inspired to write her new album No Apologies while at a First Peoples’ Cultural Council Indigenous Music Retreat in 2018. The experience led to a bigger and better Indigenous music community within British Columbia and resulted in an album with empowered, politically charged social commentary; a collection of tracks with multiple influences and genres, while maintaining a cohesive message and voice. The first single 'Dreamer' combines R&B, Pop, and Funk to create an empowering track about the importance of standing firm in your beliefs and working hard for your dreams.
“‘Dreamer’ is about standing up, speaking up, being bold, daring to be yourself, and standing strong in your roots,” says Lola Parks. "I’ve always been a seeker, a traveler, an idealist, and a dreamer. There’s always a realism to my dreams, however, because I know how to work my ass off and I’m always learning and trying to improve myself, what I know, what I do and who I have around me."
An Indigenous Canadian musical artist, Lola Parks is compelled to create, cultivate and share her art. Her mission is to give and be a voice: cultural and social brokerage through music and words. A 12th generation Canadian of Montagnais, Ukrainian, French and British ancestry, her heritage deeply influences her songwriting and music.
Over the past 20+ years, Lola has created a fiercely independent musical history that includes 3 studio releases, many collaborations, and performing around the globe. Her 4th studio album, No Apologies (out September 25th), features the previously released track 'Hey Hey' which has already aired on several CBC Radio programs, at the BC Culture Days 2019 opening ceremonies, and in the Talking Stick Festival 2020 promo video.
Lola Parks' new single 'Dreamer' is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services. For more information, please visit: lolaparks.com
