Parker Gispert

Parker Gispert has led Athens power pop trio The Whigs for over fifteen years, but when its members began branching out into other projects,Gispert went solo. His gentle,atmospheric debut album finds the frontman venturing out from his garage rock roots, ditching electric guitar for acoustic and exploring his vocal range with falsetto. Gispert cites innovative modern guitarists Steve Gunn and Ryley Walker alongside Nick Drake and Joni Mitchell as influences.Wild Fur opens.—Spencer Griffith
