Arlo Parks is a British singer, songwriter, and poet who has gained significant acclaim for her introspective and emotive music. Her music is characterized by its intimate and soulful nature, often exploring themes of mental health, identity, love, and the complexities of human emotions. Arlo tapped Phoebe Bridgers for her newest single, Pegasus. Here's what we think.
SOUND
