Pictoria Vark is the project of Iowa City-based songwriter and bassist Victoria Park. Growing up in northern New Jersey and cutting her teeth on the NYC music scene, Park’s first solo extended play surveyed the innumerable niceties of interpersonal relationships through ruminative, personal songwriting and bass-forward indie rock performance, a practice she has continued on her debut full-length record, The Parts I Dread. Beyond her outputs as an individual artist, she also serves as a touring bassist for Squirrel Flower, opening for the likes of Soccer Mommy, Julien Baker, and more.

Her debut LP The Parts I Dread is out now on Get Better Records.
