Parkes Stewart sings and writes a combination of spiritual soul and R&B music that seamlessly blends songs of longing, pain, love, and hope. Parkes explains that his objective to be the ("nexus" meaning connection) linking our humanity and spirituality. His intention is to look for the purity in the love relationship between husband and wife, man and brother, and God and man. Parkes’ music has something for everyone, for people who have experienced divorce, the young person with potential who just needs a helping hand, and for the burdened soul who needs God.
For Parkes, it has always been more than music. It is about keeping it real and dealing with issues that are usually swept under the carpet. The music then becomes not just an expression of what he does, but is something he truly is.
His last single "Clear Your Mind" was released last August and a video for it is posted below.
A big thanks to Parkes' manager (and owner of Eat Music Group) Edward Armstead III for facilitating this so seamlessly.
