Read More Nate Parrish is keeping the punk rock tracks coming with “I’m Alright,” the follow-up to recently released “Bad Excuse.” “I’m Alright” will be available on April 26 in partnership with Fair Vaux records.
“I’m Alright” was produced by Josiah Prince (Disciple), mixed by Darren King (Project 86) and mastered by Sam Moses (Haste the Day). As usual, Parrish handled most of the instrumentation himself, keeping his fingerprints on every inch of the track.
“‘I’m Alright’ is that song you wish you could sing to the person you wrote it for,” Nate Parrish explains. “It’s a letter to someone you lost letting them know you’re OK, that life has been hard but full of so many blessings. I wrote this song as if I was sitting in front of that person, filling them in on what's been going on in my life since we last saw each other, letting them know I’m alright.”
The track is the second cut from an upcoming full-length album, Parrish’s third. He said, “This song fits into the larger theme of the album, which is centered around mountains. Some mountains we move, some we don’t, and sometimes? You need to become the mountain.”
The song is slightly gentler emotionally than its predecessor “Bad Excuse,” which came out swinging with its truth-to-power posture. Fans have rallied around the song as monument to the experiences they’re having with those in power.
“I’m Alright” and “Bad Excuse” have both called on a broader team than Parrish’s first two album outings, including a partnership with the boutique label Fair Vaux Records and distribution through Steadfast Records. The collaboration has been liberating.
“Working with Fair Vaux has been a huge blessing! Having another person on the team has really freed me up to focus on the creative side a bit more,” Parrish says. “It’s always nice having someone who understands what you’re about and is willing to help you along the way.”
Nate Parrish will be continuing to release music forged by his new creative alliances all year. Hot off of serving as support for Disciple in California, he’ll also be playing more concerts. “I’m Alright” will be available on April 26.
As an experienced guitarist with a history playing for rock worship bands Worth Dying For and Kutless, Nate has continually offered a unique blend of musical exploration and thoughtful, spiritually sensitive lyrics that prod at our culture in the interest of drawing us a little closer to Christ.
