As for the past, Pamela Parker studied opera and commercial music (Recording/Producing/Composing) at Shenandoah Conservatory while simultaneously establishing herself as a performer and music producer in the Washington, D.C. area.  With her own band, she toured in the US and internationally, gaining notoriety and experience playing world funk reggae rock music.  Fulfilling a dream held since the age of 10, she finally moved to San Francisco in 2007, where she produced, engineered and released her debut record,  Beautiful Day.  Working the Bay Area music scene, she quickly had her pick of top players and put together an all-star line-up.  The band has opened for legendary acts such as Heart and Big Brother & The Holding Co., and headlined festivals such as Haight-Ashbury Street Fair, Earth Day SF, Guitarfish, Gratefulfest, Folsom Street Fair, ULUV and more. The band also completed a second album, Evolutionary Process, with Pamela earning studio time working as an engineer and producer at the legendary Hyde Street Studios in San Francisco.  The band's infectious blend of rock, funk and soul touched a nerve in Vancouver, British Columbia on the radio station CHLY 101.7FM, where the album debuted at #1, and was up for Album of the Year in 2013.

 

Pamela's relationship with Hyde Street Studios continues to blossom, as the band rounds completion of their fourth studio album, MotherSTAR.  Refining her blend of elements, Pamela has developed a sound of her own that truly showcases a dynamic range.  In the past, her band also produced a score for an award-winning short film called Love Hurts and composed custom music for commercial clients such as Discovery Channel, RingCentral and Verizon.  Pamela Parker's Fantastic Machine delivers an electrifying and emotional live show with irresistible dance grooves, dueling guitar leads and soulful ballads that hit home.  With guitar in hand, Pamela's voice cuts right to the heart as she takes the stage to continue making the world a better place one song at a time!!!

 

 

 "Pamela Parker is without question one of the monarchs of the San Francisco rock scene.  She is not only an excellent performer, but she truly embodies the larger-than-life persona she's created for herself.  Her wild style, controlled and deliberate guitar playing and powerful voice speak enough to that point, but she has also played with several incredibly talented players in her time.  It's no wonder nearly every gigging musician in the city has heard of Pamela Parker, so check her out for a classic rock-inspired experience that will leave an impression." - HOODLINE.com
