Ringdown: Caroline Shaw & Danni Lee Parpan

Caroline Shaw and Danni Lee Parpan’s electronic pop duo perform songs from their 2025 debut album Lady on the Bike, with an exclusive appearance by collaborator and cellist Anastasia Kobekina

Partners on stage and in life, Shaw has won a Pulitzer Prize and several Grammy Awards for her boundary-breaking compositions, and Parpan is a dynamic folk-pop singer-songwriter who writes emotionally stirring lyrics and relishes challenging how instruments are ‘supposed’ to be played.

Ringdown’s songs – if you’re new to the band, try ‘Two-Step’, ‘The Mess’ or ‘Emotional Absentee’ – celebrate human emotion, and many were written while the duo fell in love themselves. ‘We hope Ringdown’s music helps people feel everything they have been too afraid to feel,’ say Caroline and Danni Lee.

For one song, Ringdown are joined on stage by cellist Anastasia Kobekina to perform a newly released track they have collaborated on.
