Additionally, she was featured on Apple TV's original series "My Kind of Country," which provided her with broader exposure.
In February 2024, Parker made her Grand Ole Opry debut, a significant milestone for any country artist. This performance came on the heels of appearances at major music festivals such as CMA Fest, Bonnaroo, and The Long Road Festival.
Parker's approach to music is deeply rooted in her personal experiences and background. Raised by her Jamaican grandmother and African American step-grandfather, she represents a new wave of diverse voices in country music. Her mantra, "Tell the truth and make them dance," encapsulates her artistic philosophy of creating authentic, relatable music with a groove.
