Patty
Parker, Comstock's award winning Producer, has conducted recording
sessions in Nashville for nearly twenty years. She was one of Music
City's very first Indie female country record producers. Her talented
crew of Nashville session musicians are names in themselves and have
earned the five star reputation that they enjoy.
Patty works on a close,
personal basis with each of her artists to prepare them for their
Nashville recording experience. This includes months of pre-production
work to find the best original songs either from the singers own
material or from the many top song writers that supply Patty with top
tunes. She tailors the songs to fit the range and style of each
individual singer - from traditional to crossover.

The Nashville musicians booked for
Patty Parker’s sessions record all the studio tracks live in the
studio while you the singer are singing. Parker and her crew take
great pride in creating arrangements around the singers own vocal
style and finding your comfortable singing key. Patty is there
with you for each important part of your session, from laying
down the instrumental music tracks, to helping with your lead
vocal, to adding background vocals, and the all important final
mix to master ready for manufacturing. All you will have to do is
relax and concentrate on your singing. Your producer will do the
rest.

Music Row magazine has
called her “Music Row's favorite independent female producer” and
Cecilia Walker of The Songwriters market book quoted Patty's philosophy
as “The feel comes to a record by having everyone in the studio feel
comfortable about what they're doing, enjoying it and having a good
time. That reflects on the sound of a good record”
Parker toured as one of
the first female country drummers on the casino circuit as well as a
lead and harmony vocalist. She also contributed a producer's chapter in
the Book “How to Open Doors in the Music Industry” as well as having
her Producer skills featured in a front page story in the Wall Street
Journal and a featured news story on CNN. Her productions have won

fields. Patty Parker is also Vice President of Comstock Records, Ltd.

Patty Parker
was in Nashville with talented Chicago singer Paula Mengarelli. An
emotional highlight of the session was the honor of producing Paula’s
original patriotic song “Great American Country” Everyone involved with
the session felt the power of this tribute song relating to the
September 11th tragedy to stir the hearts of those who hear it.
