Holiday Soul — The Joyann Parker Band

December 5, 2026, 7–9:00 PM

Joyann Parker is a vocalist, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist whose work blends soul, R&B, gospel, jazz, and traditional blues. Critics have praised her voice as both powerful and emotionally resonant, calling it a defining force in her music. With roots in church music and a strong foundation in musical study, Parker developed a sound that reflects lived experience and deep musical lineage. 

Her latest album, Roots, debuted at #10 on the Billboard Blues Chart, and her work continues to reach audiences on national and international stages. Joined by her band, Parker brings a full-bodied performance shaped by strong songwriting, expressive vocals, and thoughtful musicianship. 

Holiday Soul offers a seasonal concert grounded in warmth, groove, and soul—an evening that reflects both tradition and Parker’s distinct artistic voice. 

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
