Clay Parker & Jodi James w/ Ordinary Elephant will delight the Fur Peace Station stage with their emotionally powerful songs. Power Couples!
Clay Parker and Jodi James are an acoustic duo from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The pair’s use of dense harmony-singing and subtle musical arrangements indelibly binds them to the tradition of singer-songwriters and positions them well in the folk roots and Americana strains of country music. Their sound borrows from and transforms traditional southern cornerstones such as folk, blues, country, and Americana. However, though the duo remains loyal to the heritage that brought them together, Clay and Jodi are unafraid of experimenting further, often intermixing mellow psychedelia and cosmic country into their classic harmonies.
They are joined by Ordinary Elephant. International Folk Music Awards (2017) Artist of the Year Ordinary Elephant captivates audiences with their emotionally powerful and vulnerable songs, letting the listener know that they are not alone in this world. The Associated Press is calling their latest album, Honest, “one of the best Americana albums of the year.”
