Tuesday Morning by Rykarda Parasol

“I’ve opened new doors and closed others behind”
– It’s Been a Long time, Tuesday Morning, Rykarda Parasol.

The long-awaited new album by Parasol answers the question posed in “The Color of Destruction”, her previous record: “On Tuesday Morning where will I be?” Well, if the artwork is any indication, it would seem that Parasol has evolved towards a more colorful spot, yet still evokes the same timeless nature as her earlier work that held a shadowy cool chicness. With 60s-inspired harmonies and beats, “Tuesday Morning” offers up hints of Gainsbourg and the Velvet Underground while thematically touching upon her personal evolution.
