Behind the music
About Summer's Lovers by parrott
Hi, I go by Parrott. I’m a 26 year old visual artist and musician from Seattle. You may know me for my visual work. I've been creating on web3 for nearly 3 years as an artist on SuperRare, NiftyGateway and more. What you may not know is that I’ve been a music producer for more than half my life. Music has been my passion, my language and my truest expression of myself for as long as I can remember. I first started producing in fifth grade, my parents bought me an old desktop with a bunch of cracked software on it and there I began tinkering with noise (it wasn’t music yet). We didn’t have wifi, cable or video games growing up - so everyday after school I would find myself at my computer trying to make something that sounded like how I saw the world. Over the years I had a few releases on some record labels, went on a few tours, played some festivals and even got to open up for some of my biggest inspirations - but I never found a way to survive off just my creativity alone. That is until 2020 when I found some of my life long dreams coming true through my visual art. The success happened so quickly and seemingly overnight, that both my public identity and the way I navigated the world changed - I was no longer “Parrott the Producer”, I was now “Parrott the Artist”. With the success, I found new struggles, new stressors and an ever hungry market for my art. This effectively killed my ability to create anything related to what I was then putting out. I felt watched, expectations were high and I became alone and isolated. I poured this into the only creative outlet I felt I had left - music. No one seemed to care about my music anymore, just my art - and this let me write music just for myself, for the first time since I was a kid. It was liberating and I wrote albums worth of material. These songs come from pain, triumph, loss and growth. These songs are honest, created for myself - and I’m more proud of these than anything else I’ve ever created in my life. I plan on releasing them slowly over the next year and invite you all to participate with me in this journey. I can’t begin to describe how excited (and nervous) I am to share this part of myself with the world again. This first song “Summer’s Lovers” is a love song. It’s a warm breeze on a mid-august night. Scorched grass pricking your feet. The smell of hot concrete. An embrace of a lover that sends butterflies to your belly. A kiss that hints at a summer that never ends. Forever onward, Parrott
