Duluth, Minnesota-based musician Alan Sparhawk is best known for his work with the visionary band Low, which he co-founded with his late wife Mimi Parker in 1993. Low continually evolved until the band ended with Parker's death in 2022. Sparhawk continued as a solo act, expanding on the hushed vocal harmonies and slowcore minimalism of Low's earliest days and pushing into far more experimental production on later albums like 2018's Double Negative. While Sparhawk was active in multiple side projects throughout his time in Low, he released his solo album, White Roses, My God, in 2024 and a self-titled collaborative album with Duluth-based bluegrass band Trampled by Turtles the following year.
