Following their first single “Take You On a Ride,” French brotherly duo Parallelle have released their debut album 11th Avenue, out now via their own label FOLDER. The 11-track album features collaborations with Fulltone, Barbara Lau, Sacks, Dino Lenny, Allysha Joy, Nicolas Masseyeff, and JoLy.
Described as “capturing the moody elegance of ’80s New York jazz lounges with a modern club twist,” 11th Avenue arrived on October 30.
The project marks a new chapter for brothers Thomas and Julien, who spent two years crafting the record.
“This album takes you through the inspirations that have shaped us since childhood — from jazz, funk, soul, and hip-hop to house music,” they shared.
Alongside the release, Parallelle announced a global tour, with stops across Canada, the U.S., Mexico, Brazil, Uruguay, the Netherlands, and Turkey.
The duo will perform at London’s KOKO on October 31 for a Halloween special with Pete Tong, Cristina Lazic, and Gawdat, followed by a show at La Plage Casanis in Marbella, Spain, on November 2.
