With a local reputation as a go-to upright bassist, Georgia Parker formed western swing trio Big Cedar Fever in 2018, proving adept at instantly familiar, state-centric compositions with jazz instincts. Toting the band’s 2020 debut LP Tumbleweeds, Parker’s voice proves equally suited leading a room of dancers or entrancing in acoustic intimacy. Catch up with 2016 solo recordings at georgiaparker.bandcamp.com, where the multi-instrumental vocalist shines on expressive upright bass and guitar. The collection includes an inviting sped-up version of Cedar Fever standout “Boy In Texas,” alongside the pleasantly ambling, mythology-questioning “A Cowboy’s Life.”
