Parabola West 'No One Can Get Me Here'

Parabola West's new single 'No One Can Get Me Here' opens with a cheeky refrain, launches into a joyful ode to nature with a catchy ‘do do do do’ that will raise anyone to their feet, and is capped by a lovely flute solo by West’s sister, Alex (recorded in the US).

Parabola West says, “’No One Can Get Me Here’ was recorded during a time of human disconnection around the world. For me, nature became a playful sanctuary and an enduring source of connection. Even if the world felt crazy, the night sky was calm, the trees were moving in the breeze, and nature carried on. It was so comforting to smile at the stars."

West is a self-confessed ‘math and science nerd’, saying that she experiences music as ‘a combination of emotion, science, and math – a mixture of precise structure and imperfect elements.’ The way a parabola can be used to focus light onto a fixed point (the magnifying glass trick used to start a fire with the sun), West uses those principles to focus emotions into music, hence the name.

Think of Parabola West as mixing Loreena McKennitt with your favourite female-fronted synth pop band, and then adding a dash of Middle-earth.

Produced by Scott Newth (Knightshade, Cornerstone Roots, The Datsuns), Parabola West’s sound has been compared to Aurora, Halsey, and Eivør, and this song especially could happily sit alongside Lorde’s latest work.

There is a video to go with 'No One Can Get Me Here' – which, in a playful twist to go with the song, will be made public when the song reaches 1000 streams on Spotify in the first five days of release. So do feel free to join the game :) Here is the Spotify link.

'No One Can Get Me Here' is the latest single from Parabola West's forthcoming debut album, due out in April. The album will be accompanied by a gorgeous art book which will be available for pre-order in March.
