Rosy Parlane is a musician from Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand. His work combines piano, guitar, electronics, and field recordings to create music that sits somewhere between composition and environment – less about performance, more about presence. Parlane first became known in the early 1990s as part of Thela, a trio whose exploratory sound bridged noise, improvisation, and minimal rock forms.

Later, as one half of Parmentier with Dion Workman, he explored digital minimalism and abstract rhythm before turning his attention fully to solo work. His solo albums »Getxo« (Sigma Editions 2001), »Iris« (Touch 2004), and »Jessamine« (Touch 2006) established a distinct approach built on patience, restraint, and the careful layering of tone and texture – less about melody or structure than about how sound behaves in time and space.

His 2025 release, »Array«, gathers recordings made between 2006 and 2022, originally issued on compilations and the »Willow« 7" single. Heard together, they offer a quiet through-line in Parlane’s work – small pieces connected by a shared attention to detail and the art of listening.
