19-year-old Parisalexa is an artist beyond her years. She's been proving this time and again with solid single after solid single the past year. Last month, she finally released her debut EP Bloom and solidified her place in the Seattle music scene royalty. "Gardens" is a sensual slow-jam that showcases not only her fantastic voice, but also her skills as a songwriter. The track features Seattle R&B singer MistaDC and their voices intertwine in a perfect way. Parisalexa will take the stage at Capitol Hill Block Party 2018 on Saturday, July 21. - Jasmine Albertson
