Joe Nora - Parasol (2024)

Parasol is a smooth wash of jazzy neo-soul beats, focusing on a mellow and study-friendly mood. After several vocal-focused albums, Joe Nora is excited to return to his roots with a project that highlights his instrumental production prowess.

Experimenting has been rewarding, but there's a special satisfaction in revisiting the origins and showcasing how far his sound has evolved.

Inspired by days spent exploring museums and finding shade from the summer sun, Parasol invites listeners to step outside and enjoy the world while offering a cool reprieve.

This beat tape aims to provide a little bit of chill and shade wherever you go. Featuring collaborations with harpist and producer Sara Kawai, as well as producer Harris Cole, Parasol is a testament to Joe’s finest chill beats.
