Quirky Apartment Rock out of Portland. Daniel Parker is songwriter for the band the Raining and home late at the studio laying tracks. The selections on Mend range in style from experimental rock n' roll to electronic to acoustic pop to California mellow
Bio / Background
The sonic diversity of the tracks on Mend was created through experimentation with the techniques of apartment rock and a minimalist approach to equipment. Two microphones were used for the whole of the recordings. One keyboard and a variety of acoustic instruments and percussion fill out the sound. More importantly, the melody and hooks combine with the often oddball orchestration to somehow create a cohesive pop album.
Daniel Parker, 'DP' as he's sometimes known, spins acoustic guitar based pop songs into richly layered recordings with the songwriter/producer contributing the majority of the instrumentation and vocals and a supporting cast of friends and local musicians chipping in on percussion and vocals.
Over the past decade, the music of Daniel Parker has seen incarnations from Portland, OR to Portland, Maine with recording sessions in New York, demo sessions in Florida, and club dates in Manhattan, Philadelphia, New Orleans, Chicago, Madison, L.A., and Boise.
