Jess Parker Single Launch w/ Hark Verity + Claire Spooner
About
Victoria songwriter Jess Parker is celebrating the release of her second single off her fourth coming 5th album 'BLUE COLLAR TANLINE' at Merri Creek Tavern on September 6th with special guests Hark Verity and Claire Spooner.Jess is an old soul in a modern world, blending old time fingerpicking country blues and heartfelt modern folk and storytelling. Armed with a compelling and authentic sound, Parker's charm is built around classic and contemporary themes and draped in a voice that perfectly blends soul and twang.
On her newest single 'Lady From Doreen', Jess turns her attention to a loved one, with a song that details the beautiful, simple moments of intimacy and desire in absentia. Her voice and instrument convey the ache and passion with a heady sway and heartfelt conviction.
"'Lady from Doreen' is a lonesome yearning lament written for the woman I love," says Jess. "It's about the limerence and longing you feel when a lover leaves a room, the heady absence that hangs in the air. It's a nod to all the sapphic folk predecessors and storytellers before me, and my attempt to keep the poetic fire burning - it's for her."
