About the artist

BIO

The band Who Parked The Car arose from the IMEP music school in Paris, a partner of the Berklee College of Music.

The 8 young musicians coming from France and Latin America (Argentina, Honduras), are trained jazz musicians, but above all groove lovers.

They took their first steps in 2020 during a series of fiery jam sessions in the artistic squat Jardin Denfert in Paris, and since then, have kept performing regularly throughout different Parisian venues.

The live experience, as important as it is for any rhythm-based group, is integral in WPTC’s identity. So much is the case that in their debut album, their song carrying the band’s name as a title, was written to be played live in a game of question and answer with the audience.

WPTC is more than just a jam band that has worked through their arrangements. They skilfully mix genres, from jazz to funk, including soul and electro. Their unique sound is a clever mix of vocals, brass, synths, guitars and percussions.

Lyrics

Rock Climbing (Who Parked The Car)

Why do I feel like a tiny bird?
Looking at everything that’s happening on planet earth
Hopefully we'll see the universe
Until it's time for us to go back to the real world

Let's fly together cuz we can
Until I see you run away and we’re not hand in hand
Imma gonna need you all the time
Cuz you are the one who made me what I am

Why oh why do I feel like it hurts?
Trying to reach the top when all I do is hit reverse
Tell me are we decaying over time?
Knowing that it's the only rock I wanna climb

It feels like I could fly away
It feels like I can breath again

Oh why do I feel like a tiny bird?
Looking at everything that’s happening on planet earth
Hopefully we'll see the universe
Until it's time for us to go back to the real world

Why do I feel like a tiny bird?
Looking at everything that’s happening on planet earth
Hopefully I'll see the universe
Until it's time for me to go back to the real world
