Originally from Indianapolis, Parker arrived in the Washington DC area in 2017 (by way of Seattle, San Francisco, Atlanta, Montreal, Nashville, Saint Louis, and Dallas). He is a classically-trained singer and for the last 30 years has performed with orchestras and chorales in concert halls across North America - notably Carnegie Hall (Mozart Requiem) and Davies Symphony Hall (Britten';s War Requiem). Parker started solo jazz performances in 2010 and has been performing to steady acclaim on the cabaret and jazz scene since his debut at the Something COOL Cabaret Festival in San Francisco.  Not Exactly Paris” is a moving (and sometimes hilarious) story of love and loss as a gay man of a “certain age”. Featuring the music of Elvis, Blondie, Peter Cincotti, Francesca Blumenthal, and others, Parker takes his audience on a journey to discover our shared experiences with honest storytelling and compelling vocal interpretations.
