Arlo Parks, a British artist, was one of the year’s biggest indie breakout acts after releasing her debut album Collapsed In Sunbeams in January. Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa, and Phoebe Bridgers have all endorsed the singer since the release of her album. The singer has shared a quirky video alongside her “Too Good” tune, giving fans yet another glimpse at her album.
The visual, directed by Bedroom, features Parks in a colorful cardboard house. She prepares some apples in preparation for baking a pie, but then has a major déjà vu episode that throws her entirely off course.
Parks says she was inspired by a diverse spectrum of musicians for the song “Too Good” as a whole:
“I did this one with Paul in one of our first days of sessions. I showed him all the music that I was obsessed with at the time, from ’70s Zambian psychedelic rock to MF DOOM and the hip-hop that I love via Tame Impala and big ’90s throwback pop by TLC. From there, it was a whirlwind. Paul started playing this drumbeat, and then I was just running around for ages singing into mics and going off to do stuff on the guitar. I love some of the little details, like the bump on someone’s wrist and getting to name-drop Thom Yorke. It feels truly me.”
