Parker Bossley

The artistry of Parker Bossley balances eclectic musicality with raw charisma, a testament to his small town dreams and big city ambitions; life, art and determination distilled into each song. As ringing guitars and lo-fi bass frame the lyrical narrative for his debut single, “Lifted,” Parker’s vocal soars on a chorus projecting carefree, youthful optimism. Penning the song as a chronicle about his younger self, it astutely captures the trials and tribulations of youth.

Both "Lifted" and his acclaimed focus track “Chemicals" serve as a tantalizing prologue to Parker’s incarnation as a solo artist, with all songs from his forthcoming effort written while living in a broke down Airbnb RV in East Los Angeles. Called the "Duran Duran guy" by the residents of the neighborhood due to his flamboyant outfits, somewhat-shaggy-somewhat-kempt haircut, and strident presence; Parker has dry winters and 50 cent tacos to thank for his survival.

From growing up in a tough Northern town to his time in East LA, it’s evident that Parker’s journey was essential to his art; the narratives are worn as a badge of honor and perseverance, representing true labors of love. Meanwhile, the songs and visuals project a sense of elation that celebrates a timeless sense of freedom —a motif confirming both Parker’s musical influences and his defiant individuality. “I’m inspired by people who can see the future and read the past,” he concludes.
