SUMMARY:WYEP Presents: Charlie Parr
DESCRIPTION:WYEP Presents:https://wyep.org/Sat Nov 21st Doors 7PM | Show 8P
 M$25 ADV | $30 DOS21+ Rolling Stone has called Charlie Parrs music a gritt
 y blend of Delta blues and Depression-era roots music soaked in his hardsc
 rabble voice. Its a sacred realm of folk wisdom and sorrowful vulnerabilit
 y. NPR said he offers expertly-picked resonator guitar and lyrics that pun
 cture the soul. Parr tours prolifically\, and has performed at tastemaker 
 events like the Newport Folk Fest and Pickathon.The Duluth-based guitarist
 \, songwriter\, and interpreter of traditional music has released twenty a
 lbums over two-and-a-half decades and has been known to perform up to 275 
 shows a year. Parr is a folk troubadour in the truest sense: taking to the
  road between shows\, writing and rewriting songs as he plays\, fueled by 
 a belief that music is eternal and cannot be claimed or adequately explain
 ed. The sounds from his working-class upbringingincluding Folkways legends
  such as Lead Belly and Woody Guthrieimbue Parrs music with stylistic echo
 es of blues and folk icons of decades past. Parr sees himself merely as a 
 continuer of a folk tradition.Parrs mastery of his craft is only more appa
 rent when contextualized within the history of folk tradition to which Par
 r has dedicated his practice. The land and lives around and intersecting w
 ith Parr have always influenced him\, from the hills and valleys of Hollan
 dale\, Minnesota to the Depression-era stories from his father.Parrs first
  album with Smithsonian Folkways\, Last of the Better Days Ahead (2021)\, 
 foregrounded his lyrical craftsmanship and sophisticated bluesman confiden
 ce\, with spare production highlighting Parrs mastery of guitar and elevat
 ing his blues poetry. In his 2024 release\, Little Sun\, Parr weaved toget
 her stories celebrating music\, community\, and communing with nature. In 
 doing so\, he put forth an ambitious and raw album that exemplifies the be
 st of Parrs sound: his blend of the blues and folk traditions with the ste
 adfast originality of a poet. Now\, he continues that tradition with 2026s
  poignant and timely Rooming House\, which joins the chorus of WPA-era soc
 ially-conscious folk operas and outlaw country concept albums of the 1970s
  to poignantly allegorize his experiences and the experiences of the peopl
 e around him.
