Charlie Parr w/Greta Ruth at Turf Club

January 2023 Residency

Charlie Parr’s new album, Last of The Better Days Ahead, is a collection of powerful songs about how one looks back on a life lived, as well as forward on what’s still to come. Its spare production foregrounds Parr’s poetic lyricism, his expressive, gritty voice ringing clear over deft acoustic guitar playing that references folk and blues motifs in Parr’s own exploratory, idiosyncratic style.

Greta Ruth is an experimental folk singer/songwriter from Minneapolis. With finger-style acoustic guitar and poetic vocals, her music is a meeting point of softness and dissonance, reflection, and dynamic stillness.
