Scrapetown is the latest band project for brothers John and Billy Parker.
They scraped this all-star crew together for some shows this summer. The band includes Billy on mandolin, John on upright bass, Tyler James on the 5-string, Peter McLaughlin on guitar, and Isaac Callender on fiddle. They will do some originals written by Peter, Isaac, and Billy, some bluegrass standards, and some more obscure songs, usually on the theme of the land and the people who work it. They are also hoping to have an original tune about the Wyoming State BBQ Championship and Bluegrass Festival.
The band has a couple hundred years of experience (but don’t hold it against them) and are looking forward to playing with old friends in a new arrangement.
