Parks (All Them Witches)

SPB: What is your favorite book about music?

Parks: The way I feel about books on music is the same way I have always felt about music classes, and that is that they have no place in my life. That being said, I do remember the first time I fell in love with the way an author intertwined music into their work. A Wrinkle in Time by Madeline L'engle has a way of putting music and cadence into each scene without explicitly saying so. Soon after, I began to immerse myself in Shakespeare's works where the iambic pentameter hums close to the human heartbeat and uses the full capacity of the lungs, breathing at punctuation to create music without notes.

All Them Witches

Sleeping Through The War
New West (2017)

All Them Witches is a rock band with a psychedelic blues tinge that reflects their southern-but-also-hip hometown of Nashville, Tennessee. Although All Them Witches can really deal in those druggy, heavy-hitting riffs that make you want to knock back a six pack in the desert, they also have a real musicianship that’s too often lacking in the dime-a-dozen bands that … Read more
