Per a separate note that was sent out as there aren't details on the page itself: #SilversunPickups have, with #AlSparhawk's blessing, recorded a cover of #Low's "Just Like Christmas" as a charity fundraiser of #MimiParker's choice. #music https://silversunpickups.bandcamp.com/track/just-like-christmas

As we continue to mourn #MimiParker, a note that a 2004 documentary on the band #Low, _Closer Than That_, has been uploaded to YouTube. To quote the friend who shared it: "there's a sweet clip of alan singing 'little surfer girl' to baby hollis in the SPIN offices. also, an unexpected but delightful celebrity cameo at the 29-minute mark!" (This is completely true.) #music https://youtu.be/z6BkD5ivYww
I somehow missed the recent news that the marvelous singer-drummer Mimi Parker had passed away. Only 55. I loved Low, an alt-rock band from my youth that, with mellow groovers such as "Lullaby" and "Fear," didn't get enough credit for their lo-fi sound. Parker was a big part of this: she was almost the missing link between Patti Smith and Lana Del Rey. Mimi Parker was a mood, man. An essence for those stuck-in-the-mud moments in life.

Thought this beautiful piece from Sam Walton (aka the boyf) on the passing of beloved Mimi Parker from Low was just gorgeous. Made me tear up (and give him a wee cuddle) when I read it first. #mimiparker

This one stings. Low have been a constant force in my life for over 20 years. This photo is from their Christmas show at St Luke’s in Glasgow in 2016. #MimiParker forever. #low

Rather saddened to learn of the death of Mimi Parker. Drummer of the band Low. Partner and wife of Alan Sparhawk. She will be missed.

I’ve just heard that Mimi Parker from Low has died…what a huge loss, but what an amazing musical legacy there is left in her wake.
I was fortunate enough to be there for an evening of incredible sonic highs when they played Vicar Street last April…
