About Me

Hailing from Providence, Rhode Island my name is PARKER STAR and we are The Parker Star Band. If you like what you hear tell me, if you hate what you hear tell me. I recently released an acoustic based solo album ("whiskey & roses") in 2005. Now, in 2007, a new lineup of music heroes have come together as the studio beckons once again. An evolution has taken place and I look to capture it by building on the swooning sound and swirl of electricity that made the first album such a success. The album of new material will be hitting the airwaves in fall 2007. The band will also be following the album release with a fall/winter/summer tour. To everyone who visits this site we truly appreciate your support. I make it a priority to respond to everyone and every comment. Hopefully we will see you on the road.
