The duet appears on her current Transgressive-released LP, with a worldwide tour to follow.
Arlo Parks has shared the official video for ‘Senses’, her collaboration with Sampha taken from recent album ‘Ambiguous Desire’.
Co-directed by Joel Barney and Ali Raymond alongside London production studio Sonder, the performance-led visual centres on the natural chemistry between the two artists, matching the track’s understated, introspective feel.
Featuring on Parks’ recently released third album, ‘Senses’ pairs her soft-spoken songwriting with Sampha’s guest vocal, exploring destructive relationships and emotional distance through a stripped-back, soulful lens.
Released via Transgressive Records, ‘Ambiguous Desire’ was created alongside producer Baird, with additional contributions from Paul Epworth, Buddy Ross, Andrew Sarlo and Rob Bisel. The record also features recent singles ‘Get Go’, ‘Heaven’, ‘2SIDED’ and ‘Beams’.
Following a run of intimate UK record store shows, Parks is now preparing for an extensive global headline tour, beginning this summer and including a support slot with David Byrne in Dublin before UK dates later in the year.
