At first a solo artist, then came The Johnny Parry Trio and finally the Johnny Parry Chamber Orchestra; a unique ensemble of over thirty players. Fully armed with strings, woodwind, brass and opera singers they have recorded six studio albums in the their various guises. 
The most recent album, ‘Fields & Birds & Things’, is full of grand gestures of love and death, and an unashamed commitment to both the romantic and the unusual. May 19th 2014 sees the release of 'An Anthology of All Things', notably different than the previous recordings where instead of Johnny's growly lead vocals it is performed by a choir.

"Johnny Parry vaults his way from being just another singer-songwriter to something more akin to the UK's equivalent of Sufjan Stevens, an artist with a distinctive musical vision." The Independent

Johnny Parry’s musical output began in Toronto in 2002 with the album ‘Break your little heart’. Johnny wandered the streets and clubs until he found a collection of underground musicians to perform on the record. Upon returning to the UK he joined up with Ben Milway (Drums) and Dave Lynch (Bass), and also started working with artist Andy Holden to produce bespoke live visuals for the performances. 
The trio then went on to record a mini album 'Little Prayers 1-8' in their own studio in the Bedfordshire countryside.  For the two albums that followed, ‘Songs without a Purpose’ and 'More Love & Death’ the ensemble exponentially expanded, exploring a different side to Johnny's craft as a composer as well as a song-writer. Hundreds of pages of scrutinized manuscript were brought to the studio to be played by the trio and a selection of classical musicians. Influenced as much by ideas from film soundtracks, (think Morricone, Nyman and Glass) as songwriters, (Cohen, Cave, and Waits) the records jump-cut between between hushed melancholic whispering, and sweeping final-scene grandeur.

The UK launch of "More Love & Death', May 2009 saw the official birth of the Johnny Parry Chamber Orchestra with a concert at the Union Chapel. The 2012/13 album 'Fields and Birds and Things', (international release date and european tour: May 2013), sees the Orchestra into an era of ever increasing scale and ambition.

In 2012 Johnny also set up a fifty piece choir (now the Bedford Arts Choir), to perform alongside the chamber orchestra for his new choral piece, 'An Anthology of all Things’, a collage of unique text/lyrics donated by hundreds of members of the public.

Luke Tuchscherer is an acclaimed singer/songwriter from Bedford, England
 
His introduction to the UK Americana scene came via the highly regarded alt.country band The Whybirds, with whom Luke sang and played drums.
 
The band released three studio albums (The Whybirds, 2008; Cold Blue Sky, 2010; A Little Blood, 2013), a live album and an EP. Their records attracted strong reviews from the British and international music press, including notices in Uncut (ALB - 7/10), Classic Rock (CBS 7/10), R2: Rock N Reel (ALB 4/5, LRv1 - 4/5, CBS 4/5), Maverick Country (CBS - 4/5), Daily Express (ALB - 4/5), Powerplay (ALB - 7/10) and Songwriting Magazine (ALB - 5/5).
 
In 2011, Luke and Suffolk-based producer Tom Peters (who worked with the ‘birds on Cold Blue Sky) went into the studio to start on what would become Luke’s debut solo record. Named You Get So Alone At Times That It Just Makes Sense – a title lovingly borrowed from Charles Bukowski – the album was released on 6 October 2014.
 
Upon release, the record garnered universal critical acclaim (see press for details). It was voted second best album of the year in Americana UK's reader's poll (while Luke was named second best male artist) and featured on multiple "Best of 2014" lists.
 
In August 2015, Luke signed a publishing deal with Southern Crossroads Music, and in March 2017, signed a record deal with Clubhouse Records.
 
His second album, Always Be True, was released through Clubhouse on 2 June 2017. The album again received universal critical acclaim, and reached #15 in the UK's Official Country Chart  and #25 in the Americana Chart.
