Band/artist history
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.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Currently living and playing in Southern Il, REALLY southern! Making music with friends and family and playing with the family band, The Melungeons.
Your musical influences
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.
What equipment do you use?
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
Anything else?
All songs Written and Performed by Hardley Parton unless otherwise noted. Other versions of Hardley Parton songs may be found on the Turkies Dunn page. All songs copyright Hardley Music See Licence Info.
