Henry Parker

A devoted guitarist from the West Yorkshire town of Bingley, Henry Parker plays with an intricate finger-picking style that brings to mind the late 60’s folk, psych and progressive rock scenes, with influence drawn from the likes of Bert Jansch, Nick Drake, Pentangle and Fairport Convention. His songwriting lyrically entwines landscapes, people and politics with roots that run deep into the traditional folk songs of England.
With hundreds of gigs played in his four years of live, predominantly solo, performance, and having supported the likes of Michael Chapman, Bridget St John and Wizz Jones, Henry Parker seems destined to carry on the role taken up by these original troubadours.
