A story telling musician, Parry often weaves social commentary into his tales, and political songs feature as part of his repertoire.
Lianne Steinberg, a music writer in the Big Issue said of the album: "The Liverpudlian singer-songwriter packs more weight in the punch of his folk songs than most acoustic musicians do in a lifetime".
[2] Parry followed this up with a commemorative EP of original songs dedicated to Liverpool to celebrate the city's 800th Birthday, featuring drummer Howard Northover and bassist Chad Draper.
Parry has been a champion of the local music scene, having promoted Second Friday events, Payday Playtime band nights at 'The Casa' and for hosting his weekly Acoustic Slice showcases at Liverpool's Parr Street Studios from 2006 to 2008.
[4] In January 2008 Parry was chosen by BBC Radio 4 to present a grassroots music special to introduce Liverpool’s European Capital of Culture celebrations.
In February 2010, Parry founded and launched the Woody Guthrie Folk Club which aimed to be a home to songs of struggle, humour and justice.
It featured the musicianship of Gina Le Faux, Gabrielle Monk, Gerard Sugrue, Stu Thompson and Emma Runswick.
