About Me

Photo by Darrah

My name is Jason and I’m a working musician from Seattle, Wa. I have been making my living in the music industry for 20 years. For the last eight years the majority of my income has come from playing live music. I lead The Jason Parker Quartet, one of the busiest jazz bands in Seattle, and play in a host of other bands, including Clave Nagila, Water Babies, The Nate Omdal Nonet and more. I have toured with Crooked Fingers and Devotchka, and have opened for the likes of Elvis Costello, Spoon and Greta Matassa. I teach music classes for The Experience Music Project and The Right Brain Center for the Arts.

Thanks for stopping by! Take a listen to my music, and if you like what you hear, you can download it and pay what you want (even nothing!).
