Jeremy Parker, Keys

Jeremy first studied privately with Bruce Katz while attending UMass Lowell for Electrical Engineering and Sound Recording Technology. Currently, Jeremy is under the tutelage of jazz guru and educator, Charlie Banacos. Besides being inspired and encouraged by the talented community of Boston-area musicians, Jeremy is also influenced by artists such as: Herbie Hancock, James Brown, Jimmy McGriff, Jill Scott, The Roots, Joshua Redman, Charlie Hunter, and Robert Walter.

Jeremy has his roots in the Boston blues scene from years of gigging with artists like Ricky "King" Russell, the leader of the house band at the original House of Blues. Jeremy has also played with the Royal Family, the Dwight Ritcher Band, Two Ton Shoe, and M.O. Joe. Nowadays, he's active in his organ trio, Organ In Orbit, and Steve Giannaros' new quartet, Organism, as well as Headshaft and the Boston Horns. And when he's not working as an electrical engineer, Jeremy likes to relax by designing and building his own gear, such as his custom Hammond A-100, high-power leslie, and subwoofer.
