Alan Sparhawk + special guest: THE WHITE ROSES TOUR play Chalk Venue Brighton on Wednesday 5th March 2025.
Thirty years into a career of music making, 2024 finds Alan Sparhawk entering uncharted territory. Sparhawk co-founded the band Low alongside vocalist and drummer Mimi Parker. Low’s music fearlessly explored the elementals and their thirteen albums inspired a still-evolving movement of artists mining the spacious, the graceful, and the intimate.
Over time, Low’s anthemic songs heightened in urgency and tone, as well as intensified lyrical questioning. Their final album, Grammy nominated Hey What was released in 2021 to universal acclaim. Parker passed away in late 2022.
There is no question that Sparhawk’s first solo album — White Roses, My God — is a record borne of grief. However, it would be reductive, even foolish, to see grief as its sole source or organising principle. It's taut, provocative experimentation is powered by profound lyrics and propulsive beats. White Roses, My God is an exorcism whose purpose is not to banish the spirit but to set it free.
Having recently put in guest appearances with Matchess, Yo La Tengo, Trampled by Turtles, Peder Mannerfelt, Charlie Parr, and funk band Derecho Rhythm Section, Sparhawk’s tour schedule in support of White Roses, My God begins in November and extends through next spring, including an appearance at Pitchfork Music Festival London and support dates with Godspeed You! Black Emperor.
