Solar Parachute is the exciting new solo project of drummer, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Gaet Allard.

New release ‘Can’t Help Myself’ is a track of two parts, the first half has a noughties indie feel with crunchy guitars and an atmospheric vocal.

The second half moves into a driving instrumental section, building a palpable energy before slowing to an end in just under six and a half minutes.

Gaet explained: “The idea of this track was determination – about the need to keep going and, seeing the positive aspect in every situation. I thought of the lyrics while I was doing my run so the idea for the video was a natural progression.

Everything was recorded from my home studio, except the drums at Hicaz Studio London. The mix was done by Darren Carikas.”

“I am currently working on my next album which is almost ready. It should be out before Autumn. In the meantime, since the lockdown started, I’ve been releasing short songs on social media every week. They’re one-minute creations where I play every instrument and sing.”
