EPK

Dean Parker is a guitar player, singer, songwriter and producer who is finally finding his own mercurial voice as the alt-rock raconteur.

Born and raised in North-East England, he’s been beneficially brainwashed by the likes of Jason Isbell, Jeff Buckley and Jackson Browne while making sure to come into the fold with his own sensibility and stubbornness.

2022 saw not only the start of his solo career and release of his debut EP, This All Tastes Like Yesterday, but also a myriad of performances including a US tour that saw him reach Austin, TX, Memphis, TN, and everywhere in between.

In 2023, Dean embarked on his first UK tour and into 2024 has released his second EP record, 'Is this Learning?'.
