Jack Parsons
Jack Parsons co-founded Guts Touring (formerly Up The Guts and Small Town Big Sound) with Jimmy Clarke in 2016 to open new touring routes across Australia—giving artists more chances to develop, perform, and earn before heading overseas.
Inspired by the plug-and-play ethos of the Australian pub rock circuit, the project has evolved to reach increasingly remote regions, drawing influence from the landmark tours of Warumpi Band and Midnight Oil through remote communities in the 1980s.
He is also a co-founder of the Bush Music Fund, supporting First Nations musicians from remote areas to overcome barriers to the industry.
Jack performs with The Pretty Littles as their singer and rhythm guitarist and primary songwriter. The band is about to release their 8th studio album and toured consistently over the last 15 years playing festivals and sold out headline shows across Australia. The band were recently invited to perform in Sri Lanka.
Jack has worked as both a lawyer and journalist.
