Since the acclaimed 2017 re-release of Tim Parr's legacy album "Still Standing" this legendary South African artist has been constantly writing and work-shopping new songs. Revealing his first new single in over 20 years "Silver and Gold", is also the first ever recording to feature Tim on piano. The capturing performance shows another side to this talented artist, while still keeping his status alive as one of SA's premier guitarists. Production by acclaimed South Africa producer Marshall Harmse.
Tim Parr is an artist from South Africa. Tim Parr first came to national prominence in the southern-rock blues band Baxtop, where he shared guitar duties with Larry Amos in the Joburg club scene of 1976. Rising quickly to the top of the national circuit and winning the SABC battle of the bands, they recorded "Work it Out" for Warner Brothers in 1979, which remains an enduring SA classic. Tim then formed Ella Mental with Heather Mac, which was one of the iconic 80's bands to have a string of radio hits in South Africa playing many of the countries top festivals.
When the South aAfrican scene imploded they relocated to Ireland in 1986 and recorded an album with producer Stewart Levine, who failed to capture the bands essence. Tim then returned to South Africa to form the Zap Dragons who gigged hard throughout that emotional period in SA's history. His solo album "Still Standing" is a brilliant mix of country, pop, blues, soul and rock with the title track a firm favourite among SA audiences. The common thread throughout all these projects has been Tim's expressive and soulful guitar playing, and unlike many guitarists his rhythm and textural playing is as distinctive as his lead work.
