Hardley Parton (formerly of The Turkies Dunn)strikes out on his own with the EP/CD:'Hardley Parton - Partly Hardened'
Riding solo after co-founding and playing with The Turkies Dunn for a number of years. I'm currently looking for musicians to play/colaborate with (ie Bass, Lead guitar, Fiddle or Slide Guitar, Harp etc.)see contact for more info.
Currently living and playing in Southern Il, REALLY southern! Making music with friends and family and playing with the family band, The Melungeons.
I love Johnny, Jimmy, Hank, Kris,the Louvin Bros. and even some truckin' favorites.(AS well as Jim, Jack and Old Grandad) Influences are too many to list, but a simple song with a good story (or at least a good hook) and a good harmony are what I strive to attain.
Hardley Parton plays and collects Tenor Guitars ( 4-string rhythm guitars from the '30s-'40s) but occasionally pulls out a baritone Ukelele or his tenor banjo or Bahzooki
