Parts & Spares are a London-based folk-pop trio blending acoustic nostalgia with a contemporary edge. The band formed when Frida Jones (vocals), her dad Luther (songwriter/guitarist), and her girlfriend Kaisha McGroarty (multi-instrumentalist) began playing music together — a natural extension of the years they’ve spent growing up alongside each other. Their bond runs deep, shaped by the shared experience of navigating love, pain, joy and change — across generations and relationships — and that emotional honesty lies at the heart of every song. The band’s sound is built on Frida’s resonant, expressive voice — full of warmth and edge — paired with distinct melodies and arrangements that blend their acoustic folk roots with a modern mix of pop clarity and indie texture. It’s a sound shaped by their shared connection and lived experience, with influences spanning from the ’60s to today — including Bob Dylan, Angie McMahon, Bon Iver, Big Thief, Cece Coakley, and Florence + The Machine. Their live sets carry the same emotional weight as their recordings — intimate, raw, and deeply felt. With just two tracks out, they’ve already been picked up by BBC Introducing and Future Hits Radio — and there’s more to come.
Parts & Spares make music that feels lived-in — a love letter to instinct, emotion, and letting go.
