Charlie Parr, 2013
When: March 26, 2013
Where: Grand Rapids, MN - Reif Center
Charlie Parr is a local musician from northern Minnesota. He is an amazing guitarist/banjo player (using mostly the 'finger-picking' style) and folk/blues singer. His shows are usually at very small venues, as this one was. My husband and I have both been fans of his for years and had been eager to attend another show. So we bought tickets when we heard he was coming to our town, and we ended up in the very front row! He is a very mellow and shy man, but very fun to watch. He told little stories about each song before he sang it, and talked about his family a lot. After the show he was chatting with fans near the merchandise table, so we both bought a CD and I got mine signed! We didn't get a photo with him this time, but I am very much hoping to see him perform again soon.
