Anthony Nathan Parsons (born 3 November 1989) is a singer-songwriter, producer, and entertainer from England. He has released eleven singles and one extended play to date.
Growing up, Parsons displayed some musical ability, playing the keyboard and writing snippets of songs. [1]
In 2007, Parsons began his music career by posting videos on YouTube featuring himself singing cover songs. These would be recorded in the style of him sitting and facing a camera whilst singing into a hand-held microphone. Most of these early videos were recorded whilst Parsons was working on a night shift as a security guard and the background in his videos often featured various workplace settings. The first song that Parsons covered was " Your Song" by Elton John. The song was recorded a cappella featuring just Parsons' vocals. He received a positive response to this video which prompted him to record and release more videos onto YouTube.
In 2015, one of Parsons' YouTube videos, featuring a cover of Celine Dion's " I'm Alive", caught the attention of talent scouts in America. They arranged for Parsons to travel to Florida where he performed a number of live shows for them including at the World of Beer Festival in Florida. [2]
Parsons was born in Bolsover, Derbyshire, England. He is married and still resides there with two children and two step-children.
He has provided vocals on two charity song releases; "Rise Above It All" in 2020 [3] and also as a guest vocalist on "A Children's Christmas Time" in 2017. This was a charity Christmas single organised by Chesterfield's Spire Radio and featuring various local artists. [4] The single was in aid of both Ashgate Hospicecare and Teenage Cancer Trust.
On 9 September 2020, Parsons was presented with the 'Hero of Bolsover Award' by Bolsover MP Mark Fletcher. This was in recognition of his charity single, "Rise Above It All". [6]
