“Glass Eyes Cryin’ was the first song we wrote and recorded for Hold The Mash,” says Parker Barrow’s drummer, Dylan Turner. “We felt it was the perfect song to kickstart a musical shift to what the band has become since our previous record.”
Continues Turner, “It’s a laid-back, groovy and features a powerful vocal that tells the story about a sass-filled response to situations of emotional manipulation. With the use of many textures, and gospel elements, the song takes you on the emotional journey that comes with the realization that actions truly speak louder than words.”

“Megan Kane is one of those one-in-a-generation vocalists. She also has amazing energy on stage still able to belt out her vocals whilst bouncing around like a Duracell bunny.” – Get Ready to Rock
“Truckloads of rock ‘n’ roll exuberance, with thrilling rhythms and
spectacular Plantish vocals.” – Raw Ramp
Husband-and-wife duo Megan Kane (lead vocals) and Dylan Turner (drums) lead Parker Barrow. The name of the band is a homage to Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow – the infamous American bank robbers during the early 1930’s Great Depression.
A chance encounter in 2019 paired-up Megan and Dylan, who was hunting for a new singer. Two weeks later, they were on the road together, driven by one goal: making their musical dreams a reality.
In 2023 Parker Barrow expanded with the full-time inclusion of guitarist and musical director Alex Bender. Dylan lays down a heavy groove while Megan’s soulful vocals soar high above. Alex’s inventive riffs and fiery playing pull it all together, creating Parker Barrow’s signature sound.
Parker Barrow’s vintage rock vibe features elements of Rock, Southern Rock, Blues & Soul; but their distinctive sound is unmistakably their own. There’s an impressive mix of old and new influences threaded throughout the band’s repertoire, including The Rolling Stones, Blackberry Smoke, Allman Brothers Band, Aerosmith, Tedeschi Trucks, The Black Crowes and traces of Led Zeppelin.
Parker Barrow’s debut album Jukebox Gypsies was released to glowing reviews from music press and fans globally; and the single “Back To Birmingham” racked up over a million YouTube views.
In 2025 they released the EP Hold The Mash, featuring the singles “Make It,” “Novocaine” and “The Healer.” They toured the UK supporting the Damn Truth later that same year winning over new fans. Planet Rock radio added “Make It” to their main playlist.
Parker Barrow has earned a reputation for their powerhouse live shows featuring spontaneous jams and fresh twists on their songs. In 2025, the band were busy touring the U.S. and, in the summer, they played festivals and headline shows in the U.K. and Spain.
Parker Barrow thrives on connecting with fans, both old and new. They will continue touring across the US and Europe through 2026. Their live shows deliver high energy, swagger, and pure heat—a testament that rock ‘n’ roll is very much alive and well.
“You can hear that they’ve drawn from the wells of the Allmans,
Led Zeppelin, Blackberry Smoke, Tedeschi Trucks Band, leaning into both the sweet and oomphy, biting sides of those blues-infused heroes. Nice.”
