Arliss Parker


Arliss Parker evolved as the solo project of Chris Parker in 2006. Chris moved from Colorado to New York in the fall of '06 with an arsenal of musical ideas. He converted an abandoned dark room into a recording studio and started adding all kinds of sounds to his acoustic guitar compositions. Toy keyboards, glockenspiels, random percussive instruments and electronic tones found their way into the mix and Arliss Parker was born.

Between 2006 and 2007 dozens of compositions were recorded mixed and mastered in that home recording studio. He whittled the offerings down to six tracks and made a few demos. In 2008 Chris teamed up with DAG! Records to introduce Arliss Parker and Handsome like a Lion. The album is a mix of experimental folk rock and electronica that gets you lost in thought.
