Parry is a dedicated member of Sydney’s music scene, dedicated to providing a platform and voice for artists that have often been left out of traditional Australian music narratives. He’s the current Editor of music website Purple Sneakers, one of Australia’s only dedicated platforms for dance music, hip hop and R&B.

He also founded interview podcast Parry Talks, which aims at telling the stories of emerging artists in an in-depth, long-form format. The podcast has since expanded into a charity focussed record label.
