The Perfect Lesbian
Parker formed King of Prussia when he was 15 years old and about to graduate from high school. Everyone in the band is at least a couple years older than him except Reza, the trumpet player. Reza did his homework in the tour van on his parents' condition that he go to college as soon as he would normally have. So, King of Prussia hit the road for four years, touring constantly and releasing two albums, Songs For Petra (tentative title) and Hohenzollern. As a temporary farewell to the fans, they released an EP, Peace On Earth, Purity Of Essence. The best known song off Songs For Petra is "Dexter/Sinister." Many people mistake it for a romantic song. It is a love song, after a fashion, but it isn't romantic: Parker wrote it for Mary. Parker has several tattoos, including "Dexter" written in script on his right wrist; Mary has only one, "Sinister" in script across her left wrist.
At present, I think King of Prussia is:
Parker - lead vocals, bass
Rose - vocals, Moog
Reza - trumpet
? - trombone
? - tenor saxophone
? - guitar, vocals
? - drums
