Mike Parker Trio

Mike Parker's professional music career began at the age of 17 playing funk and rock gigs in New York clubs. Since then, he has toured Europe and America, playing over a thousand concerts and festivals from Holland to Romania and New Orleans to Estonia. He has recorded 4 albums of original songs, with critics describing his music as "an ingenious synthesis of all musical genres" and "a mix of post-bop, indie rock, avant-garde and some inclinations towards modern classical", with influences ranging from Led Zeppelin, John Coltrane and David Bowie to Thelonious Monk, Maurice Ravel and A Tribe. For his latest project, the Mike Parker Trio, he is joined by long-time collaborators Wojtek Lichtanksi on alto saxophone and Max Olszewski on drums. The trio performed throughout 2024, appearing on stage in Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Poland.
