The Byron Bay band also dropped their latest upbeat single, ‘Yougotmefeeling’, along with a new live session

Parcels have announced their third studio album, LOVED, set for release on September 12th.
Recorded between Berlin, Mexico and Australia, the upcoming record is expected to be the Australian indie-pop group’s most upbeat and expansive yet. Describing it as an album of unity, Parcels say it’s a personal, yet celebratory journey:
“It’s very internal for all of us, so personal and so deep, which is sometimes quite uncomfortable. But I guess that’s what Parcels is — at least at the moment — all of us having that individual journey, then trying to make a space so we can funnel everybody’s experiences into the same world and express it as a celebration.”
The 12-track album features recent singles “Safeandsound“, “Leaveyourlove” and the newly released “Yougotmefeeling”, which is out today alongside a new live session.
They’ve already introduced the new material at Coachella and will take it to Australian audiences at the end of the year for their biggest tour yet (see full dates here).
LOVED follows their 2021 album Day/Night and the breakthrough Parcels (2018). It also comes after their Leaveyourlove EP, released last year, which started as a single and grew into a collaborative project featuring reworks from artists like King Stingray, Ximena Sariñana, Rawayana, MARO, Cosmos People, HaiTing (of Sunset Rollercoaster), Robert Owens and Tobi Neuman.
In between festival slots at Coachella and across Latin America, Parcels have had a packed tour schedule. This northern summer, they’ll perform at Primavera Sound and Glastonbury, followed by a European tour that includes a date at London’s Wembley Arena in September. In October, they’ll head to North America for 11 shows, including New York’s Forest Hills Stadium and two nights at Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre – a venue they sold out in minutes last year.

Formed in Byron Bay in 2014, Parcels now split their time between Australia and Berlin.
