After what seems like ages the new 4 track EP by Parker Lewis is officially out now on Mad For It. Parker Lewis is one of those rare artists that mixes a pop sensibility with electronic beats and stellar songwriting. All those elements are present in the song “Shelly” with it’s swirling synths, electronic beats, soaring distorted vocals, and melodramatic lyrics. You can download the entire ep for free here.
