Tāmaki Makaurau indie rock band PARK RD return with their second album, Boyhood, embracing a lighter alt-pop sound while building on the infectious energy and melodic songwriting that have become their signature.
As the band describes it, this album has been written over a period of time, as we’ve been growing up and experiencing the world around us. It feels like an accumulation of our lives as friends and the relationships happening in the close circles around us. We have romance in there; we have songs about music, stories of good times as well as the bad times. It’s a snapshot of all the highs and lows of growing up, and we are so excited to share what Boyhood means to us with everyone.
Marking an exciting new chapter for PARK RD, the album sees the band confidently broaden their sonic palette while retaining the melodic charm and distinctive spirit that have established them as one of Aotearoa’s most exciting acts.
Boyhood is available to pre-order now on limited edition vinyl.
