II. Live Music
Parkland, Scenic Route To Alaska
The debut self-titled album of Parkland, like the aspen parkland it is named after, plants the listener in a place of transition. Contrasting clean production and honest sound, strategic instrumentation and upfront lyrics, the songs that span the genres of folk, country, emo, and indie rock have the feel of the complex, understated place in which they were written.
Scenic Route to Alaska is perhaps best defined through dichotomy: young but mature, curious but collected, accessible but substantial. Such balance is all too rare in this scene, but thankfully, Scenic Route to Alaska strikes it with a style all their own.
