New women of country artist Parker McKay dreams to be on the cover of Rolling Stone and plans to achieve just that by putting everything she’s got into her music. Inspired by old country favorites, The Dixie Chicks and Sheryl Crow, Parker just knew that she wanted to pursue a music career. From Pittsburgh to Nashville and finally New York City Parker attended four different colleges including AMDA (American Musical and Dramatic Academy) in Manhattan where she caught the attention of big name label, Live Nation. With this connection Parker had the opportunity to open for The Rascal Flatts and The Band Perry.
In late 2014 Parker made the move to Nashville where she discovered a community of talented and creative individuals who made it easy for Parker to adjust to her new surroundings. This move led to even greater opportunities for Parker and a chance to refine her sound. Reflecting on her experiences in the land of country music Parker advises that in “nashville people don't care how well you sing or how good your songs are, so take your time and stay true to your music.”
More recently Parker has just released her newest single ‘Rolling Stone,’ which tells the story of an artist’s journey to fame. ‘Rolling Stone’s upbeat tempo and powerful vocals make each and every line captivating and unique. ‘Rolling Stone’ can also be found via Spotify and iTunes.
In the future Parker, like any other artist, plans to take her music international and hopes to see herself at the Grammys as artist of the year.
