Alan Sparhawk
A homegrown, underground duluth indie artist.
Alan Sparhawk's (of Low), sophmore solo album 'With Trampled by Turtles' out May 30th via Sup Pop Records. 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, who passed away in late 2022. Their music derived elemental power from its fearless exploration of quiet, gentle places. Low released thirteen albums and influenced a movement of spacious, graceful, intimate, and ever-evolving music. Over time, Low's anthemic songs heightened in urgency and tone, unearthing new layers of musical exploration and lyrical questioning. Their final album, Grammy nominated "Hey What," was released in 2021 to universal acclaim and marked a high point in their musical evolution and trajectory. Sparhawk has recently been playing with various collaborators and projects with friends and family members, including guest appearances with Yo La Tengo, Trampled by Turtles, Peder Mannerfelt, Charlie Parr, and funk band Derecho Rhythm Section. He's touring solo with his band in the US, UK and Europe in 2024 as well as releasing brand new music.
