Benton parker Single Covers
From the heart of Memphis by way of Jackson, Mississippi, Benton Parker is an artist who carries the weight of tradition with a modern, magnetic spark. Blending the grit of blues with the tenderness of soul and the storytelling spirit of classic Americana, Parker delivers a sound that feels both timeless and new. With a voice that aches and soars, and songs that bounce between dance floor fuel and late-night reflection, Parker shows the multitudes of his sides in these deeply personal recordings.

THE DESIGN INSPIRATION AND CONCEPT
Prior to the release of ‘Benton Parker Steppin’ Out’ (his debut album), Benton needed to release a series of singles.
All of the following single covers are inspired by the nostalgic charm of blues, soul, and R&B album covers of the 1960s and ‘70s.
