Forfolks is as welcoming as it is musically adventurous. Void of production or virtuosic solo excesses, it allows the listener inside the guitarist's soundworld for an instinctively guided, infectiously listenable tour.

Out of necessity, mobility begets both versatility and self-sufficiency. Guitarist Jeff Parker certainly gets around, geographically and stylistically. In a career that spans over three decades and is still evolving, he’s been an inveterate touring musician, based in either Chicago or Los Angeles. And Forfolks confirms to his ability to create a complete and authentically broad musical experience using only tools that he can carry.
