Parker conceived the project in Perth in 2007. After a series of singles and EPs, Tame Impala’s debut studio album, Innerspeaker, was released in 2010; it was certified gold in Australia and well received by critics. The follow-up, Lonerism, released in 2012, also received critical acclaim, achieving platinum status in Australia and earning a Grammy nomination for Best Alternative Music Album. The third album, Currents, released in July 2015, won ARIA Awards for Best Rock Album and Album of the Year. Parker won the APRA Award for Song of the Year in 2016 for the album’s lead track, “Let It Happen.” The fourth studio album, The Slow Rush, was released on 14 February 2020. At the 2020 ARIA Music Awards, Tame Impala won five trophies.
Beyond his work with Tame Impala, Parker has collaborated with various artists, including Mark Ronson, Kendrick Lamar, Miguel, and Damon Albarn. He has also written, arranged, and produced tracks for Lady Gaga, The Weeknd, Travis Scott, Rihanna, Kanye West, and Kali Uchis.
Tame Impala’s discography includes four studio albums, two live albums, four extended plays, and twenty-two singles. The project’s music blends psychedelic rock with elements of indie rock and synth-pop, characterized by Parker’s distinctive production style and multi-instrumental performances.
