John Parish first hit public consciousness as a collaborator with PJ Harvey, co-producing and playing on To Bring You My Love and Is This Desire? While he subsequently staked out an enigmatic solo career, the tale of his rise in music is entwined with that of Harvey.

Parish’s first “solo” release came in 1998 with the soundtrack to the film Rosie. He also contributed to albums by acts such as Sparklehorse, Giant Sand, 16 Horsepower, and the Eels. 2002 saw the release of Parish’s second solo effort, 'How Animals Move', and in 2009 'A Woman a Man Walked By,' his second collaboration with Harvey, was released. He composed and recorded the feature film score for She, A Chinese in 2010, and co-produced and played on Harvey’s Mercury Prize-winning Let England Shake in 2011.
