JUANITA PARKERURBAN-Raised in Southern South Carolina, a quiet and shy girl with musical aspirations and dreams at an early age. Sparked by a toy piano under the Christmas tree, started her love for music. She began playing by ear, and later on took piano lessons for three years. Her interest spawned into singing after performing in the children’s choir at church, but was too shy at the time to act upon her interest. In the confinements of her own space and comfort zone, she would lock herself in her room to explore different types of music to sing to, as well as the music exposed to from her parents. Upon growing older she still continued to keep her musical ear open by teaching herself piano, singing in the choir, and musical plays at church and school. As well as pursuing other dreams in the Arts with dance. Into adulthood, she built her musical interest with a voice, by singing to her family and friends and then later at open mics. After marrying guitarist John Parkerurban, she had no choice but to continue building on her musical journey, as she was always surrounded by music and inspired. She also developed a passion for writing, which she hated in school, but was always complemented on by her teachers. With still a lot more room for continual growth and improvement with her singing and songwriting skills, Juanita brings a lot of courage and sultry sound to the mix and killer harmonies with singer Myrna Stallworth.
