In his short lifetime he created many memorable tunes with legendary bands such as The Byrds and their album Sweetheart Of The Rodeo and as a founding member of the The Flying Burrito Brothers.
Finally there was his two solo albums G.P. and Grievous Angel, both made with Emmylou Harris. Called upon to describe his music, Parsons called it “Cosmic American Music”
To mark the 50th anniversary of his passing, a huge array of local Melbourne musicians are putting on a show called "20,000 Roads: A Gram Parsons Tribute" at The Brunswick Ballroom on Sunday September 17, 2023 and will be celebrating the Cosmic Cowboy himself.

This will be an unforgettable night of wonderful songs and performances where fans and musicians alike will unite to celebrate the enduring spirit of a true visionary. Grab your cowboy boots, gather your friends, and be part of this captivating evening.

City born but country raised, when Dave Wright puts pen to paper and pick to guitar strings he knocks out epics and ravers and boozers about girls, cars, Australia, mariticide, Diggers, truckers, sadness, sickness, drunks, heartbroken mothers, angry fathers, desperate sons … and death. Lots of death. It’s a dark road rutted by Holden rust buckets and RSL relics but between 2012-2021 Dave and his band the Midnight Electric released 4 albums and 2 EPS of searing roots rock music.
In June for one night only the band will launch their brand new album Darkness Calling by playing it in full, in sequence at George Lane in St Kilda in a rollicking, thoughtful, and intimate show that is not to be missed.
