Richard Reed Parry is a Canadian singer and multi-instrumentalist, born on October 4, 1977. He comes from a musical family, with his father David Parry and mother Caroline Parry being involved in the music industry as well. Richard is also the brother of Evalyn Parry.

Known for his versatility and talent, Richard Reed Parry has established himself as an influential figure in the music scene. His unique style blends various genres and influences, creating a captivating sound that resonates with audiences worldwide.

With similarities to artists such as Sarah Neufeld, Nico Muhly, yMusic, Bell Orchestre, Nadia Sirota, Claire Chase, Kronos Quartet, Susie Ibarra, Sylvie Courvoisier, Little Scream,and Colin Stetson among others - Richard Reed Parry's music showcases his artistic prowess and ability to push boundaries.

Best known as an accomplished multi-instrumentalist in the Grammy-winning rock band Arcade Fire, the Quiet River of Dust volumes are Parry’s first solo work outside of his innovative compositional work with the highly respected Deutsche Grammaphon label. But Quiet River of Dust is a new direction: a dreamlike journey of immersive, gently psychedelic songs inspired by Japanese death poems and the folk music of the British Isles. The genesis of these songs came ten years ago after Arcade Fire’s first tour of Japan in February 2008. Parry stayed on for weeks after the last show, heading to a monastery for some solace in what he described as “the biggest silence you’ve ever heard.” Quiet River of Dust has been slowly gestating ever since, in many ways a necessary respite from Parry’s other musical pursuits as creating this music grew into a meditative practice. Guest performers on this project include Parry’s partner Laurel Sprengelmeyer of Little Scream, Stef Schneider of Bell Orchestre, Dallas Good of the Sadies, Yuka Honda of Cibo Matto, Amedeo Pace from Blonde Redhead, and The National’s Aaron and Bryce Dessner.
