Phoenix area based mandolinist Billy Parker has announced the release of his new recording of mostly original instrumentals entitled Mandoclectic.
13 tracks in all, the disc is a unique and exciting collection of original mandolin pieces spanning genres from old-timey to tango!
Parker had this to say about his new recording: "This album is an anthology of musical ideas and experiences that I am pleased to share. Mandoclectic says it well and the pieces represent musical ideas I have been carrying around for the better part of my life and shared on this CD. You will hear, bluegrass, old-time, gypsy jazz, celtic, and other pieces I call 'Gravy.' This is a listener's CD and I hope you enjoy!"
