Trans Atlantic band Dog Park, have dropped “Time,” the song arrives ahead of their debut album Festina Lente available on April 19th via Géographie and DSPs. Dog Park has played at La Boule Noire or the Auditorium of the Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris, as well as several summer festivals across France.

In the heart of the 18th arrondissement of Paris, near the famous Sacré-Cœur, lies a picturesque dog park, where the simple joys of life unfold against the timeless backdrop of the city. This is the setting for the band’s captivating video Dog Park, accompanying the evocative song “Time.” Filmed amid the playful interactions of our four-legged friends, the video transcends imagery to embody a profound metaphor for existence itself.

It is a long but happy story how the band came together, Erica is American, Isabella is Brazilian, and Sarah and Jean are from Paris. After they first met at a concert in Paris in 2021 between lockdowns, they quickly began creating and composing as a unit. Because they are all multi-instrumentalists and embrace spontaneity, they naturally play musical chairs as part of their composition process. This is what makes their quartet unique: instruments and microphones change hands from one track to the next.

There is no leader or designated composer in Dog Park. Each member contributes with fragments of songs that are then worked on together. This is apparent on their debut album, Festina Lente, consisting of ten tracks with diverse styles and moods. Erica’s vocals, with her distinct voice, are inclined towards twee or dream pop, often accompanied by an energetic beat. Sarah’s deep tone, flirting with grunge, harmonizes with the darker tracks. Isabella’s jazz-infused moments brings a sense of calm.

Dog Park’s primary influences include Real Estate, Kacey Johansing and the early 2010s Captured Tracks releases, including Veronica Falls and Beach Fossils.
