Released in December 2021, Forfolks is a solo guitar album from Jeff Parker, the acclaimed Chicago-based musician known for his work with the influential post-rock group Tortoise. The album showcases Parker building intimate, layered compositions by playing alongside looped recordings of himself, resulting in a sound that feels both spontaneous and deeply considered.
Forfolks is celebrated for its warmth and understated joy, with tracks ranging from brief meditations to sprawling explorations nearly 11 minutes in length. Rather than feeling self-indulgent, the record captures a genuine sense of discovery — Parker delighting in the musical ideas he uncovers in real time, making it a compelling listen for fans of solo guitar, jazz, and experimental music alike.
