Indie rock band The National Parks have unveiled their latest single, “Where Are You,” and announced their upcoming studio album, Wild Spirit, set for release on August 23rd.
The band shared their thoughts on the new single, stating, “Not too long ago, I entered a season of life filled with existential questioning. I didn’t realize I was embarking on a long, difficult, yet beautiful journey that would challenge the very foundations of my reality. There were nights I lay awake, feeling breathless.
“I wrote this song after what felt like a mental marathon, knowing there was more to traverse but taking a moment to rest. It’s about knowing where you want to go, being uncertain of the path or time it will take, and accepting that moment of pause.”
In addition to their festival appearances, including Lollapalooza this summer, The National Parks will embark on the Wild Spirit Tour, with dates across the U.S., U.K., and Ireland. Stream the new song and check out the tour dates below:
