"Uplifting, soul stirring, defiant and triumphant"
Booking Kit
Biog
Alun Parry is a socially conscious storytelling songwriter. His hopeful, uplifting folk songs tell inspiring stories of social and personal change. He makes you smile as he makes you think.
He is “an incurable champion of ordinary people.” (R2 Magazine)
His songs and sound reflect the special geography of his Liverpool hometown. The foot stomping lilt of nearby Ireland. The gritty North American folk style of troubadours like Woody Guthrie. All laced with a Lennonesque twang.
Musically he has been compared to Billy Bragg, Steve Earle, Woody Guthrie, and Christy Moore

”In dark days like these, songs like Alun’s are needed more than ever and they shine like a beacon through the fog of lies, disinformation and propaganda to present a working class view of reality. Great singer, great guitarist, great songwriter and hugely entertaining in live performance.”
"Songs that address the world we live in now"
“Powerful stuff. There is something essentially Liverpool about the songs and the sound. Songs that address the world we live in now.”
Folk Legend
"Tremendous breadth of lyrical ambition"
