No Depression may have said it best when they called Lee Roy Parnell “a fine writer blessed with a rich, soulful vocal delivery and a blistering array of guitar chops drawn almost equally from Texas blues, Memphis soul, and Southern rock traditions.”Parnell is part of a long line of Texas roots-music eclectics. However, he is among the elite few who can be identified as a triple threat. First, he’s an ace guitarist who is known as one of the best slide guitarists on the planet. Also, his music includes blue-eyed soul, Delta blues, roadhouse rock, Southern boogie, Texas swing, country and gospel. Parnell draws from a broad range of musical sources and combines them with seamless dexterity. Also, unlike many other hard-to-pigeonhole artists, Parnell has enjoyed a run of success on the country and blues charts.
After honing his skills over more than a decade of playing clubs, Parnell laid a new foundation in Nashville. Then, upon earning a regular spot at the famed Bluebird Café and a publishing contract, Parnell launched his solo career. There, he scored many country hits including “A Little Bit Of You” (Number One hit). Also, “What Kind of Fools Do You Think I Am” & “Tender Moment” (both Number Two hits). Additionally, four other Top Ten hits: “Love Without Mercy”, “On The Road”, “I’m Holding My Own”, and “Heart’s Desire”. Further, Parnell has earned two Grammy nominations for his instrumental tracks.
