The band said, "'Wildwoods' is a set of four songs that we'd be demoing back in the latter part of 2013 on an old laptop, digitally adding layer upon layer in order to create a rich almost wall of sound production. The songs really took form once we'd begun recording in the famous Rockfield Studios with our producer Steve Orchard and it was particularly incredible the first time we heard a real string section track the parts we'd been building up back at home. With 'Wildwoods' being our first release the idea is to offer a glimpse into who 'Scarlett Parade' are and incorporate, as much as possible with four songs, all the colours in our palette.'"Formed in 2011 by songwriters Geoffrey Tinkler and Adam Jones, Scarlett Parade's music combines powerful melodies with introspective lyrics that are inspired by authors and poets such as Tolkien, W.B. Yeats, and Edgar Allen Poe.
With Tinkler on vocals, piano, and drums, and Jones on lead guitar and bass, the multi-instrumentalist duo enlisted top engineers for their new EP "Wildwoods," including Cenzo Townshend (Snow Patrol, Florence + The Machine), Tim Palmer (Blue October, Polyphonic Spree), and Steve Orchard (U2, Coldplay).
"Wildwoods"was released today, June 2.
