Parker has arranged all 10 songs from Drake’s debut album for his band, featuring Josh Rawlings, Evan Flory-Barnes and D’Vonne Lewis, with special guests Cynthia Mullis and Michele Khazak. The Quartet is recording at Jack Straw at the end of December and is offering unprecedented access to the entire process. Funds raised will cover the cost of musician’s fees, engineering, mixing and mastering. To learn more, take a look at the video below!
