Richard Reed Parry – "Finally Home" (Soundcheck Podcast)

Many people will know Richard Reed Parry as the tall redheaded guy who seems to play half the instruments in the Grammy-winning rock band Arcade Fire. Some will know him as a composer of classical music. This piece falls somewhere in between – it’s a work called “Finally Home” that he and an all-star cast performed live in our studio. Richard Reed Parry's latest project is a trio album with violinist Sarah Neufeld and cellist Rebecca Foon, full of lush, atmospheric music. They’ll be playing on our next New Sounds Live concert on Jan. 30 at National Sawdust – details are at newsounds.org. Meanwhile, this live set by Richard Reed Parry's 'Quiet River of Dust' is the latest Soundcheck Podcast, available wherever you get podcasts,
