Pianist / Keyboardist / Composer Parker Shper, originally from Central VT, has been based mostly in the Montreal area since he began studies in Jazz Piano Performance at McGill University in the mid-late 2000s. His steady input into the creative music scene in Montreal, the northeast USA, and overseas, has had him touring, recording writing with The Barr Brothers, Richard Reed Parry (Arcade Fire) Heart & Breath Ensemble, Leif Vollebekk, Craig Finn (The Holdsteady), and Anais Mitchell (The Brightness) to name just a few.

Recently, Parker has been focused on somewhat of a return to his Classical and Jazz Piano roots and is honored to be debuting several new pieces for a trio at The Phoenix on March 21. In addition to his consummate and unique pianistic abilities, Parker has developed a vocabulary of programmed Synths and EFX systems, adding an ambient electro-acoustic element to his original compositions.
