“When their debut album, Our Day in the Sun, drops, New York duo The Parlor will introduce the world to what they’re calling trance-folk pop,” Consequence of Sound. Described as “stunning and evocative” by the Metroland, “cleverly crafted” by In Your Speakers and “magical, haunting and surreal” by The Gazette.

“Our Day in the Sun..ranks among the best to come out of this region probably ever. Combining their previous penchant for homespun indie folk with a new sensibility that falls somewhere between Phil Spector and Animal Collective, the Parlor are creating some of the freshest, most creative music you’re likely to find around town—or the Internet.” Metroland

“Over the course of their four recordings, Jen O’Connor has developed into one of Nippertown’s most sultry and beguiling vocalists. And the hot-wired Eric Krans is still one of the most captivating, can’t-take-your-eyes-off-him frontmen ever to grace a Capital Region stage. Together, they are a mesmerizing yin-and-yang musical presence,” Nippertown

“…a brand of music forged by contemporary methods but built from organic, acoustic, folk-based textures. It’s the sonic corollary to what the couple is bringing to their land, an artisanal reimagining of an antique dream,” Metroland

“The Parlor, the local powerhouse duo…has created a refreshingly honest and magical new album.” Lady Music Makers. Our Day in the Sun, the fourth album written and recorded by Eric Krans and Jen O’Connor was self-released in the Spring of 2012.
