Jed Parsons

Jed Parsons with full band. Pre-sales $15, door $20 (if available).

He’s a familiar face and an accomplished multi-instrumentalist who has loaned his talents to many a band over the years. Now Jed Parsons is taking centre stage with his unique concoction of indie-pop, having appeared on stages including Auckland City Limits and Nostalgia Festival.

With his debut solo album on the horizon, the Christchurch-based artist has been revealing a taste of what’s to come, with his successful debut single ‘Get Lost’ and most recent single, Everybody’s Stupid - both of which debuted on Apple Music’s ‘Best of the Week’ playlist.

Parsons’ sound is a culmination of his rich and varied background as a touring musician, which has taken him around the world and into the studio with the likes of nomad, Pacific Heights and Mel Parsons.

His music balances eccentricity and energy with intimacy and musical sensitivity, maintaining a focus on catchy hooks and lyrical prowess.
