Arlo Parks shares new single 'Beams'

Twice Grammy-nominated and Mercury Prize-winning artist Arlo Parks has released her latest single 'Beams', offering a final glimpse into her upcoming third album 'Ambiguous Desire', due this Friday 3rd April via Transgressive Records.

The track arrives as one of her most emotionally exposed releases to date, navigating themes of isolation, emotional fatigue and the lingering weight of past trauma. Built around soft, shimmering instrumentation, 'Beams' pairs delicate production with a vocal delivery that feels both intimate and quietly powerful.

At its core, the song reflects on the fear of being a burden and the internal struggle between shutting down and pushing forward. Yet, amid that heaviness, Parks threads a sense of gradual healing, leaning into self-worth and the slow realisation that acceptance is possible.
