Doug Parmenter

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Doug Parmenter is a local Welsh musician and childhood friend of Kelly Jones of Stereophonics fame. They later worked together at the vegetable stall in Aberdare, which Kelly often referred to in the songs of their debut album, Word Gets Around. Since appearing on Later With Jools Holland, Doug has come from being an incredibly obscure musician, to a musician famed for the variety of his work, performing and collaborating with John Power (Cast, The Las) and KT Tunstall.

It is rumoured that Doug will be joining Red Hot Chili Peppers during their headline slot at Reading Festival this year, having taken up residence in the city since leaving Wales.
