FRIENDLIES - TESS PARKS & ANTON NEWCOMBE

FRIENDLIES - FROM THE ALBUM 'I DECLARE NOTHING' OUT JUNE 29 - via 'a' Recordings
Music by: Tess Parks & Anton Newcombe
"There are seven gates to hell, five are to be found in Hastings" - Anonymous
Famous as an ancient battle ground and the home and death place of occultist Aleister Crowley, Hastings is notoriously rich with tales of the macabre and supernatural.
Directors Natasja Fourie and Lilly Creightmore collaborated to create a Cambrian journey, a dark and waking dreamlike tale, in keeping with the mood and sound that Tess Parks and Anton Newcombe create with this closing song on the soon the be released album 'I Declare Nothing'.
Music Video directed and filmed by: Natasja Fourie & Lilly Creightmore

Why isn't she more popular, she's brilliant

[@mischlingbeerandcigarman]

Just found this, I agree.

[@Matt_Guns]

The biggest travesty is that no one knows this collaboration happened. This should be seen by the entire world on a stage but I guess we are the few fortunate. The entire album is contested for the hall of fame. Once Anton and Tess are discovered for what they have done these past years, I actually think it might come to fruition in the near future.

[@andreagreer9743]

God I hope so

[@andrewwabik5125]

196k people know. I have the album coming in next week.

[@mikenorledge4110]

[@davidobrien7610]

In a better world these two would have been so huge; I just feel grateful to have found them. Turn as many people onto them as you can; everyone who hears this is receiving a gift.

[@evilsaints1989]

I just discovered them today and I’m like WHOA!! Who are these people. I’m 55 and I’ve been listening to shoegaze/dream pop/underground alternative music since my teenage years listening to the cure, bauhaus, the damned to name of few. I’m so happy this played while listening to Lorelle Meets the Obsolete

[@FisicaCiencia]

Could you and anton record another version of anemone? please, pleasseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@024t8]

This need more upvote.

[@mikenorledge4110]

Erm A's done that already, best with Miss Katie on vocals...have you noticed how quickly anton moves on? ;-)

[@DamianL]

Oh man, no disrespect to the original, but a new one with Tess would be indescribably good to hear.

[@DamianL]

Oh are we calling him A now? What do you mean best with Katie, best compared to what?

[@mikenorledge4110]

por la vida hombre/chica!

[@leslieschmidt19]

This young woman is not only beautiful, talented & extremely lucky. She gets to pair with one of the most clever & talented musicians. I am blown away! Thank you both. ❤

[@thomas1312.]

"I've made a lot of enemies," may they be blessedly happy and fruitful.

[@DarlingPhenylethylamine]

Made a lot of enemies, just because I said what was on my mind.

[@mostevokish]

oh yeah I know that bag

[@mischlingbeerandcigarman]

Me too

[@guybisson3037]

The beach in the video with the old fishing boats is Dungeness, about 30 miles up the coast from Hastings...fascinating place to visit

[@mischlingbeerandcigarman]

Been bottle digging there. Fantastic.

[@ArgoVII0]

A Tess Parks Show has just made it to my Bucket List. Her music speaks to my soul in a way the familiar cannot understand.

[@BoscoWiggins]

I can't believe that these two thought that "Cocaine Cat" and "Mama" "...were two of the strongest songs on the record" as given in an interview. To me this is *the* strongest. In any case, this is an awesome pairing, these two. Her vocals and lyrics, and his music. Incredible.

[@twizz420]

Here because of GIFGAS

[@mischlingbeerandcigarman]

The more I listen to this, the better it gets.

[@dennisrockbottomskelly7948]

Folks... Tess & Anton/Anton & Tess (also BJM) are.... IT! (Musically & Creatively speaking). I've heard/seen 'em all Come and Go in the last 40+ years of my (often) Substance-fueled and Full-throttled rock-n-roll life (although I've learned to live without the fuel...(sigh). These Wonderful artists work at an entirely different level than most everything I have heard...Sincerely devastating Music and Performance...I'll never be the same again..anymore...or ever. My eternal Gratitude to The Two of them... RB/ musicmaker/fan/columnist/a-hole/etc/deceased&retiredfromTheScene. L.A.M.F. !!!

[@mikenorledge4110]

I was just going to type something but you said it all for me .. my little linguistic contribution as ever is "T & A all the way!"

[@YanniEhm]

This is a great song and Tess, your voice is mind-numbingly beautiful.

[@mischlingbeerandcigarman]

Great song. Goimg to see Lindsey and patch it up.

[@eddiejamesmagic4207]

As a shell collector couldnt help but notice the queen conch shell at the end.i love finding bigger conch shells burried in the islands and sand bars of the southern states its so fun i need a boat instead of a kayak but illl get there! Great music btw

[@euphoria1822]

I've been listening to this song every day since it came out, never get tired of it.

[@thedilletante4401]

Going through your works. Holy shit, lady. If Mr. Newcombe is the Godfather of the revival, you're the goddess of it.

[@ArcangeloMongiello-lz4sm]

Tess Parks my favorite YES

[@mischlingbeerandcigarman]

Can t get enough of tbis.

[@3cs3hs]

i literally can't make it to the end of this song without crying.

[@snapzep601]

Mazzy Star vibes!!!

[@Kimberly-cr6mp]

This is a beautiful song I never heard before. Love it! Was Mazzy Star, and Dead can dance. Good to know he's alive! Our Anton

[@dakotacastro215]

You guys rock, I could listen to your songs on repeat for the rest of my life

[@_Nothing_To_See_Here_]

Her voice, her amazing voice

[@uricabb]

Your music is a gift Tess....

[@christophersharp8235]

Nico and the velvet underground, a dash of 60s garage, courtney love and mazy star, all mixed into a cool dreamy sound scape... Love this!!

[@BohemianAndy]

Very cool. Love your work Tess, and your collab with Anton

[@mischlingbeerandcigarman]

Just pissed my friend Linsey off. This resonates. I m here for the music. Tess is talented. Love this, all joking aside.

[@dunkelheit5240]

your voice and a cigarrette make my day

[@juanjohn427]

[@3cs3hs]

[@gstff]

[@jacquesh1647]

[@cqlr]

Tess Parks and Hope Sandoval, this collaboration is my dream

[@cumaeansibyl]

Lots of negative stuff going on in my life. I've had this on loop the past two weeks at work and it's really helping me stay... not "calm," don't think that's possible, but at least not freaking out? Thanks. I really like that little violin loop.

[@HakimALIGHT]

My favorite track on the album. Stupendous video.

[@chacartesrocker3365]

Rock''and roll baby!!! FOREVER!

pardon the "reminds me of", but I only have such evocations from music that's gut-felt and pure .. [royal trux .. like when they were on]. thx for the great music Tess & Anton. (- from an old starcleaners resident circa 97)

[@weirdcrunkygremlin1449]
