Ringdown is the cinematic electro-pop duo, featuring Danni Lee Parpan and Pulitzer and Grammy winner Caroline Shaw. The duo was drawn to each other through mutual admiration of each other’s work; Shaw has won a Pulitzer Prize and several Grammy Awards for her boundary-breaking compositions and collaborated with celebrated artists such as Nas and Rosalía, and Parpan is a dynamic vocalist and folk-pop singer-songwriter who sings emotionally stirring lyrics and relishes in challenging how instruments are “supposed” to be played. Ringdown is a playground they can only access with each other, allowing them to create a style of pop music that explores the spaces between electronic and acoustic sounds and re-imagines traditional song structure.

Their debut album celebrates the feeling of possibility in myriad forms: the possibility of love; the possibility of creating connection and community in a world trying to pull those things apart; the possibility of making music in new ways.The songs on Lady on the Bike draw from subjects such as relationships (good and not-so-good), personal growth, political anger, and joy. The songs were collaboratively written and recorded by the duo, mostly in unconventional settings around the world—at airports, Airbnbs, the Muziekgebouw concert hall, under a bridge in Amsterdam—and often using blankets to create makeshift sound booths and a Neumann TLM 102 mic that Shaw has carried with her for years. Ringdown invited New Body Electric members Leah Vautar and Aaron K. Peterson to perform on and help produce several songs, helping the band crystallize its distinct pop sound. The album also features Sō Percussion on a new version of Ringdown’s previously released single “Ghost.” Ringdown appeared on Sō and Shaw’s new Grammy-winning album Rectangles and Circumstance, and the groups have been performing together in collaborative concerts since last fall.
