Parker Woodland
“THE STORY OF PARKER WOODLAND: Parker Woodland is the power trio of founder Erin Walter (vocals, bass), Andrew Solin (guitar), and Keri Cinquina (drums). The band formed almost accidentally, in 2018, when Walter and some neighbors got together to jam in a church where one of them worked as music director. What could’ve been a musical one-nighter ended up sparking something too magical to dismiss.
The early incarnation of the band saw Dan McMonigle (Strait Music tech and Berklee music grad) bringing a haunting alt-country sound to his and Erin’s shared Riot Fest underpinnings. DJ/artist Ralph Cutler also helped found the band, contributing drums, art, and backing vocals to the debut EP (recorded in one seize-the-moment day and engineered by Jonas Wilson at the Pink Room in Bastrop, Texas). A varied crew of friends contribute to Parker Woodland recordings and celebratory live experience.
Parker Woodland was born to the outside world in Fall 2019, with a handful of unforgettable, sweat-soaked shows at Austin venues the Nomad, Hotel Vegas, Hole in the Wall, and Batch. The band had a blast shooting a video for lead single “The World’s On Fire (and We Still Fall in Love),” filling Erin’s house with friends one last time just before the COVID-19 pandemic hit.
Austin artists Sam Hensley, Melissa Bryan (The Shindigs), Katy Koonce (Butch County), Simone Monique Barnes, Preston Patterson (Ballet Austin), Richard Whymark (A Curious Mix of People zine, The Good Music Club), Ike and Wendy Eickstaedt, Davis Comeau (Militant Babies), and under-18 band Haunted Hollows have all joined in the creative process, to bring the energy of meaning it to life. Parker Woodland is proudly part of the Girls Rock family, with Erin a former co-president of the Girls Rock Austin board.
The COVID-19 pandemic was a heartbreaker for musicians, and Parker Woodland is no exception. “We miss the stage. We miss our fellow bands. We miss everyone,” Erin wrote in 2020.” But the forced downtime also brought an array of creative opportunities, with Parker Woodland playing livestream benefits, community events, podcasts, and making time to release the new EP and a video trilogy of “Band Life in the Beforetimes.” Erin took the music on a 150-stop virtual tour from her house. And of course, there’s nothing like the apocalypse to inspire songwriting. “The World’s on Fire (and We Still Fall in Love)” is a fiery start — and it’s only the beginning.
In 2022 and 2023, Parker Woodland played shows for renowned Austin radio station KUTX, a South By Southwest showcase and big Rock the Park event. Next Parker Woodland celebrated a double single on Sept. 1, 2023, with a release party at Chess Club in Austin.
Parker Woodland signed with Flak Records and released their first full-length album, THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS TIME, released Sept. 6, 2024! Parker Woodland has been announced as a SXSW 2025 Official Artist!”

The Lockhearts
“Hailing from the heart of Texas, The Lockhearts have been making music together since they could talk. This country sister duo first expressed their love for lyric and song when they penned a tune together at the tender ages of 5 and 7, and from there, they never looked back. By 10 and 12, Paige and Kate were strumming chords on their ukuleles and guitars, infusing their tunes with all the matters of their life, heart, and soul.
For the past seven years, The Lockhearts have been on a journey to perfect their craft, dedicating countless hours to writing, refining, and performing their songs. Along the way, Paige and Kate have been grateful to have captured the attention of both Grammy nominees and winners who have generously given their time and talent to collaborate with Paige and Kate on a few of their writing projects.
Now, at the ages of 17 and 19, the two sisters are thrilled to finally debut their music to the world.”
