James Parr has been writing, recording and performing music his entire life. Drawing inspiration from the natural world, he writes about loss, nostalgia, beginnings & endings. With an acoustic foundation, the songs are layered with texture, ambience and atmosphere. With styles ranging from folk-rock to indie-pop to Americana, thus drawing comparisons to everyone from Simon & Garfunkel to U2 to James Taylor, he is an artist outside the lines of easy categorization.
James wrote, recorded, produced, mixed and mastered his 2018 album Cold Front, providing all vocals and instruments. The album earned a positive review on the indie music site Divide And Conquer, and the title track was featured on nationally syndicated The International Americana Music Show.
