We recently had the chance to chat with Parker Layton about his new single “Keep in Touch” and more. Check it out below!
1. How did you get your start in the entertainment industry?
Got started in the entertainment industry when I started working with the artist development company called PCG. That’s where I worked on live performance, vocal practice songwriting, etc.
2. What was the first song you released?
The first song I’ve released is called Keep in Touch. It was released on April 10.
3. What is a typical day like in the studio?
A typical day in the studio consists of lyric writing for hours at a time with also trying to find a melody to go along with it. Which can take up most the day. Then we record vocals. This can about an hour or so.
4. What is your song “Keep In Touch” about?
My song Keep in Touch is about how communication can either make or break a relationship. With the question being asked whether one can remain friends or not.
5. What inspired the song?
The inspiration came from my experiences of relationships that have ended because lack of expression of what I wanted or the other person needed to be happy.
6. Who are some of your favorite artists?
Some of my favorite artists are Coldplay, OneRepublic, John Mayer, Justin Timberlake, and James Bay.

Working on a couple of new songs that will be released within the next few weeks!

I enjoy going to school at ASU (Arizona State University). Along with working weekends at the bar. I also enjoy cooking and playing basketball.
9. Are you going on any tours or having any shows this summer?
This summer I may be playing some local shows. I typically spend my summers working on my family’s onion/chile farm in New Mexico.
10. Do you have anything fun planned for the summer?
I’ll probably take a couple trips throughout the summer. I’ll be mostly working on the farm.
11. Are you working on any other upcoming projects your fans should look forward to?
