After having their debut album "Jukebox Gypsies" crack quite a few "Best of 2023" lists, the Nashville based band Parker Barrow return with a brand new single and video for their freshly recorded track Make It. Written and composed by Dylan Turner and Alex Bender, the song arrives on April 11th and is the first new music to be released by the band from an upcoming album due later this year.

Taking their name from the infamous outlaw duo of Bonnie (Parker) and Clyde (Barrow), Parker Barrow is a high energy, blues-infused southern rock 'n' roll band led by husband- and-wife duo Megan Kane (lead vocals) and Dylan Turner (drums). A chance encounter brought Kane and Turner together in 2019, when Turner was searching for a new singer for his band. The pair immediately hit it off, and within two weeks they were on the road together in full time pursuit of a mutual musical dream - and the couple have been riding the highs and lows of rock 'n' roll road life ever since. In 2023 Parker Barrow expanded with the full-time inclusion of guitarist and musical director Alex Bender. At the foundation of Parker Barrow's sound is the heavy-handed groove of Turner's drumming, with Kane's soulful and electrifying vocals soaring up over the top. The pair's dynamics are brilliantly stitched together by Bender's creative riffs and spirited playing throughout the songs.

Parker Barrow's vintage sound contains elements of rock, southern rock, blues and soul; but the band's brand of music is unmistakably and distinctly their own. You will find an impressive mix of old and new influences threaded throughout the band's sound, including the Allman Brothers, the Black Crowes, Blackberry Smoke, Johnny Cash, the Rolling Stones, Tedeschi-Trucks, Whiskey Myers and Led Zeppelin.

Parker Barrow's debut album "Jukebox Gypsies" was released in August 2023 to rave reviews. Count Your Dollars was the first single and video from the album, with the follow up track Back To Birmingham racking up over a million views of the official music video on YouTube.

For the new single Make It, the band returned to producer Stephen McKnight, who was also behind the board for "Jukebox Gypsies." "Make It was a fun song to write," says Turner, "It allowed us to show a more playful side of the band both lyrically and musically. The song is a sweet concoction of heavy drums, loud guitars and screaming vocals. The time changes give us room to balance the groove and high energy swing feel that are both so prominent in classic southern rock 'n' roll."

Kane continues "We knew right from the jump that Make It would be the first single for the new album. ...it had our 'it' as a song and we immediately thought of making it (pardon the pun) a staple in our live show - high energy to get ya moving with an edginess true to the band's rock 'n' roll spirit."

Bender adds "Sometimes songs can take weeks, months or even years to complete, and we found the process in this case to be the contrary - Make It came together rather quickly. We really enjoyed the process of writing and recording Make It and feel that the track encompasses what Parker Barrow is all about."

A video for Make It was shot on location in Nashville, and was directed and produced by Keith Leman, best known for his work with Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood, Morgan Wade, Luke Bryan, Darius Rucker, Kenny Chesney and Willie Nelson.

Booked worldwide by Intrepid Artists International, Parker Barrow is currently on the road as a 6 piece and will occasionally perform with up to 10 members. The band has become well known for its electrifying, full-throttle live shows where no two performances are the same and their songs are often infused with extended jams that move seamlessly through the emotional spectrum. The band will spend much of the rest of 2025 where they prefer to be - on the road. A US tour started in February and includes dates with Robert Jon & the Wreck, Them Dirty Roses, the Kentucky Headhunters and the Band Feel. Parker Barrow will head to Europe for the first time in July for dates in the UK, Spain and France including an appearance at the "Maid of Stone" festival in England. Parker Barrow's shows have become legendary for a reason - they are a well-oiled rock 'n' roll machine on stage with a captivating live presence and infectious energy. Don't miss your chance to catch them live!

What they're saying about Parker Barrow:

"Parker Barrow absolutely swings for the fences on their 10-track debut album Jukebox Gypsies... this much-anticipated record over-delivers on all levels and should do much to jump Parker Barrow up to the highest realms of the roots rock scene. The band combines power-hungry beats, nail-tough guitars, all-pro vocals, and an impossible-to- ignore emotional fire into new rock music that comes across as genuine and true"
