Several Songs About Fire is the sophomore solo record from A. Savage of Parquet Courts. Produced by John Parish and featuring contributions from Jack Cooper (Modern Nature, Ultimate Painting) and members of Cate Le Bon‘s band, this album finds Savage refining the types of songs & arrangements he has explored on his debut solo record Thawing Dawn and in Parquet Courts’ more narrative-based songs. I did additional recording for the album at Studio Windows (including the vocals for lead single “Elvis In The Army”), and love hearing my friend continue to expand his incredible discography in exciting directions. Several Songs About Fire is out now on Rough Trade Records.

A. Savage of Parquet Courts has announced his upcoming sophomore solo LP Several Songs About Fire. The single “Elvis In The Army” was featured on Pitchfork, Stereogum, The FADER and many others, and comes on the heels of last month’s song “Thanksgiving Prayer”. The album was produced by John Parish in Bristol, UK, and features contributions from Jack Cooper (Modern Nature, Ultimate Painting) and members of Cate Le Bon’s band and Caroline. I recorded the vocals for “Elvis In The Army” at Studio Windows, along with additional vocals & guitars for various songs on the record. Several Songs About Fire is out October 6 on Rough Trade Recordings.
