An evil scientist who hit the experimental lottery with his solo act, Parish is premiering his second single “Release” with Daphne Willis. The project is titled ‘Parish f/t’ — the funking slash between two consonants simply meaning that each song will feature a new artist. Reborn as a producer, Parish hopes to capitalize on bringing together unique vocalists. To him, the sum is always greater than the parts. Parish f/t’s first single beheld the talent of Paul McDonald, circa American Idol 2011. However, with Daphne Willis, Parish found a set of vocal chords that truly paired well with his vision for “Release.” “I’ve long been a fan of Daphne Willis’s music and when thinking of other people I wanted to feature she was the first person to come to mind... Lyrically I think the song will touch anybody who has ever dealt with anxiety issues, and from a musical standpoint it has all the elements that I love hearing in pop music with an amazing vocal and killer bass line.” “Release" has all of my favorite elements of music combined in one track: A killer vocal from Daphne Willis, a hypnotic bass line, and nostalgic elements from the past that give us something a bit familiar but leaves us trying to put our finger on it.” -Parish
