Pærish has revealed the details surrounding their upcoming new album Fixed It All out April 23 through SideOneDummy Records. Today, they also release the song and lyric video for “Mike + Susan”, taken from the album, which fans can now stream at link: https://youtu.be/
“Mike + Susan” is one of the best songs to summarize my writing process, as I tend to assemble pieces of my life and try to make them fit together,” explains vocalist and guitarist Mathias Court. “It’s a mix of different situations I’ve experienced. One of them is a discussion I had with a friend of mine, talking about the familiarity and warmth you sometimes feel when you arrive at train stations you’ve never been to. It’s your first time there, but somehow you can feel like you know this place and someone is here waiting for you. Another story in that song was me being on a stopped train, writing on a notebook, and seeing a couple outside dancing in the parking lot. At that time, I was in a relationship that was pretty much about to end, and I realized how beautiful it was but also how I couldn’t be insensitive to their happiness.”
The album was produced by Will Yip who says, “…The second I heard Pærish, I knew it was going to be a home run if we worked together. Getting to collaborate with them was an incredible experience. Their passion in their craft was infectious. They deserve to be huge. Honest, real, but massive songs.”

The members of Pærish met at film school in Paris, and adopted the name based on the awkward, skinny kid character Alan Parrish in Jumanji (starring Robin Williams, not The Rock). Their collective primary passion in life for music eventually led the members to focus on writing songs over scripts and concentrate on performing on concert stages as opposed to working on movie sets. Their collective love for film can be found in song titles and lyrics. It’s this marriage of film and music that resonates with listeners. Pærish songs provide the soundtrack to love, loss and trying to make sense of the world around them.
Pærish has supported bands in Europe like Silversun Pickups, Movements and Moose Blood. They also opened for Sum 41 during their European arena tour.
