ANDERS PARKER is a singer/songwriter from Burlington, VT.  Fourteen years into his career we are proud to announce the release of his twelfth album - the double concept albumSkyscraper Crow. TheCrowportion of the set is unadorned acoustic folk simplicity at it's finest whileSkyscraperis totally computer generated laptop pop.  The albums are, at least aesthetically, diametrically opposed, but they are distinctly the work of Parker.In 2008 ANDERS PARKER moved to Burlington, VT after a number of years in New York City.  There he relegated himself to a subterranean basement where he finished work on a series of 4 disparate albums. These records starkly represent 4 different directions of his artistic compass - one acoustic folk, another electronic pop, a third of improv guitar instrumental noise-scapes and the last a rock band barn burner.Skyscraper Crowis the first installment from the project with the others to follow suit shortly thereafter.  Says PARKER, ''Skyscraperis my love/hate letter to New York and my life there'' adding, ''I would create a drum beat and lay down a chord structure in one sitting, then I'd ride the subway for as long as it took to write the lyrics.  Then, my friend, Kendall Meade (Mascott), came over and sang background vocals on most ofSkyscraper.''PARKER wroteCrowat the end of 2008 in Burlington after he had finishedSkyscraper. ''WithCrow, I was trying to create small little worlds with each song. I had just moved into my new home on a block surrounded in every direction by squawking crows. The house has a perfect basement for recording, one where you can watch dust float in intense rays of dream light'' recollects PARKER.Before recording under his own name, PARKER performed in the indy-rock/alt-country act Varnaline and played in the space-rock band Space Needle. PARKER's career has seen him tour with the likes of Bob Mould, Son Volt, Sparklehorse, and The Verses as well as Lollapallooza 1997. In 2006, ANDERS released an album that he recorded with Son Volt and Uncle Tupelo founder, Jay Farrar, under the name Gob Iron.  EntitledDeath Songs for the Living, the record was series of folk songs reinterpreted by the duo.
