Thu 02/04/2026 - 16:30 - Music Mania x Arlo Parks present 'Ambiguous Desire' Pre-Sale & Listening Party
Twice Grammy-nominated, Mercury Prize and BRIT Awardwinning artist Arlo Parks announces her new album, Ambiguous
Desire, due April 3rd via Transgressive Records.
Ambiguous Desire is Parks at her most confident and
experimental, supplanting live band sessions for modular
synths, ableton plugins and samplers that channel the frenetic,
vibrant spaces she was immersed in, all while spotlighting the
acclaimed poetry and lyricism she’s beloved for.
Reflecting on the making of the record, Parks shares, "I danced
more than ever as I made this record, I made more friends than
ever too, found myself in the weird underbelly of New York juke
nights, unleashed, laughed and laughed and laughed. This
record has desire at its centre. Desire is a life force, it’s a
wanting, a yearning, a momentum - we are all alive because
there is something or someone we want - desire is an engine.
But it is also mysterious, tangled, random, enlightening and
HUMAN."
Parks crafted the album with producer Baird (Brockhampton,
Kevin Abstract). Their process unfolded between NYC’s vibrant,
community-rooted nightlife and long, introspective days spent
in Baird’s downtown loft. The result is Parks’ most vulnerable,
self-affirming, and euphoric work to date.
