Jeff Parker

Musician
Best known for Mandolin Harmony Vocals

Jeff Parker is a Kentucky mandolinist and singer who has been part of two bands that mattered — the Lonesome River Band in the early 2000s and Dailey and Vincent, which he helped found — and whose tenor singing is as much of the job as his playing.
