Clay Parker and Jodi James create worlds within their records by populating each song with points of view that are archetypical yet unique. After almost a decade of working together, Clay Parker and Jodi James’ distinct sound has maintained a minimalist yet mercurial quality. They jokingly refer to themselves as “a band without a name,” yet it is this designation of two separate identities that best describes their particular synergy; and the sweetest harmony resides in their ability to abide by their own personalities while creating something entirely fresh that is continuously evolving. With James’ country-soul reactiveness and Parker’s blue and winding reflectiveness, the resulting sound is a blackout bingo card of Americana.

Noting the duo’s heady baritone and crystal bell-tone incantations, Rolling Stone Magazine once aptly described their sound as “mesmerizing back porch music.” Clay Parker and Jodi James’ live shows rely solely on the bare necessities: two voices, two guitars, and one amplifier sitting stoically between them. Yet every whispered guitar trill and every lofty vocal harmony seems to lead their audiences near-hypnotically into a common breathing pattern. Clay Parker and Jodi James consistently present music that carves a most-direct, excess-free path to its listeners and patiently displays the duo’s true nature as creators of a primitive kind of beauty — stark yet expressive, accessible yet deep, shadowy yet real.

Clay Parker and Jodi James are immensely talented and we are thrilled to have them at Waldo Folk!

The two-hour show will start at 7:00 PM and doors will open at 5:30 PM on October 9th in the Tap Room at Waldo Pizza.
