I remember this one night when I was like nineteen, and I went to this rock club with an ID that i borrowed from my friends older brother. There was this cover band playing, and they were just rocking their way through every kick ass classic rock song that I loved.........it was awesome! I drank abotu 14 rum and cokes and then had a few shots of tequila to top it off. Through very hazy eyes I started chatting up this really cute girl, but mid way through had to run outside and puke all over the side of a dumpster. Good times. That's what we sound like.
The Parker Brothers are a throwback. Their music comes from a time when you could hear the Faces played right after the Sweet while driving up Ventura Highway. When girls in tube tops on roller skates chugged Boones Farm wine while flirting with All the Young Dudes. Where melodies soared and guitars wailed in unison and everyone could have a piece of that Humble Pie.
It was a time when dogs played poker and Boss Hogg always had Luke Duke by the pubes. When long walks on the beach would ultimately end at a half buried statue of liberty, next to a shirtless and screaming Charlton Heston.
This was the time of the Parker Brothers.
It was a time of innocence, when anything seemed possible. Long before elegantly written software, there was the smell of plastic melting in a microwave. There was Roberta and Donny singing about “Where is the Love”, while people raised their Pet Rocks. There was Me and You and a Dog named Boo all listening to the Guess Who.
There were Green Grass and High Tides, Jailbreaks and everyone was cool if they made a little Bread.
Before Death, Drugs and Divorce, there were The Parker Brothers.
C’mon and take a Freeride with the Parker Brothers and find out what everyone is talking about.

Your music combines the rakish swagger of Bon Scott with the gravitas of a shirtless Charleton Heston riding a horse on the beach of a barren world. You complete me.
