Arlo Parks biography

Anaïs Oluwatoyin Estelle Marinho (born 9 August 2000), known professionally as Arlo Parks, is a British singer-songwriter and poet from West London. Parks chose her stage name as a distinctive personal pseudonym. Her music blends touches of indie pop, R&B, folk and bedroom pop and she has named Sylvia Plath, Radiohead and Joni Mitchell as some of her influences. Parks released her debut album, Collapsed in Sunbeams, on 29 January 2021. The album received widespread acclaim, with many music critics praising Parks' versatility and vulnerability. The record was supported by seven singles including Black Dog and Hurt. The album won the 2021 Mercury Prize and was nominated for Best Alternative Music Album at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards. Parks told NME in October 2020 that the album is "a series of vignettes and intimate portraits surrounding [her] adolescence and the people that shaped it. It is rooted in storytelling and nostalgia – I want it to feel both universal and hyper specific."
