PREGNANCY CHOIR
“Pregnancy Choir digs in – clawing back layers to reveal a beautiful glimpse into parenthood. Expecting baby Juno during the time of the album's recording, Austin's Jenny Parrott bares a vulnerable and honest portrayal of pregnancy. Each blanketed vocal coalesces into a maelstrom on the cerebral work, either ascending into pining supplications ("Rain") or sinking into a densely knotted array of voices ("Origin"). In "6 Rows," Parrott's husked timbre and soprano weave delicately in solemn introspection, while "Runnin' to You" rings ebullient like a gleeful church chorale. Joyful, somber, chaotic, and dissonant all at once, an internal chorus grapples with the realities of pregnancy, from the thrill of life to the policing of women's bodies. “

THE FIRE I SAW
The album is an evolution of Parrott’s seemingly effortless lyricism, humor-infused despair and economical yet unforgettable melodies. “A lot of the songs are about life, death and faith,” Parrott says. “I’m trying to be myself with the songs and performances instead of putting out a record with the right number of happy-sounding songs on it.” The release has been preceded by singles “I Thought” and “Georgica.”

WHEN I COME DOWN
“Debut When I Come Down weaves a dreamy menagerie of ragtime, alt.country, doo-wop, grunge rock, and piano ballads exploring the effects of violence both personally and societally.”
Released August 19, 2017
