Evan Parker:
Evan Parker is a Florida-based singer-songwriter blending indie, folk, country, and alternative into a sound that's both intimate and expansive. He spent eight years fronting Portland, Maine’s experimental indie band If and It, releasing a string of eclectic albums. Now performing solo under the name Edwards Radio as well as his own, Evan continues to evolve. His albums Feral Nights and the more recent This Endless Life capture that progression—warm, analog-rich songs full of lyrical honesty, lo-fi textures, and genre-bending storytelling. Whether on stage or in the studio, Parker brings a raw sincerity that invites listeners in and stays with them long after.
Nomad Moody:
An active musician part of many diverse projects spanning over a decade and interacting with other artists holding a near infinite well of experiences resulted in an epiphany: artists need freedom. The question this provoked was simple: how much could an independent musician accomplish if unencumbered by the obligations of everyday life? So, purchasing a Ford Econoline, he set out to answer that very question. The idea is to convert the van into a livable space, then head into the heart of culturally rich cities where music reverberates at the core, free from the handicaps of responsibilities that could inhibit creation. Easier said than done, and currently in process. Nevertheless, ‘Nomad Moody’ continues to dedicate what time is not spent on van conversion to opportunities for live performance, wherever they may be. This process has made an apparent impact already on the content produced, and has refined a musical style that bends genres while maintaining the soul found in the great folk music once birthed by the embrace of freedom to explore.
