All About Jazz founder/publisher Michael Ricci thought Rick Parker's second CD, Finding Space (WJF Records, 2006) was one of the best records of 2006. Parker is an energetic young musician and composer who also happens to play trombone. He's serious about writing his own music and finding his own way, even releasing his new album on a label he co-founded with Jesse Selengut, with whom he runs the Williamsburg Jazz Festival.
All About Jazz contributor Jason Crane, who also hosts the jazz interview podcast The Jazz Session, spoke with Parker recently about writing, recording, and livin' in the city.
