An Evening with Parker Diffie at the Velvet Room
Get ready for a special night of country music here at Wayfarer Appalachia. We are thrilled to announce that Parker Diffie will be performing live in our intimate Velvet Room. Join us on Friday, November 14, 2025, from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM for an evening that bridges country music's past and future.
Carrying on a Country Music Legacy
When your father is a country music legend, the path you walk is a unique one. Parker Diffie, the eldest son of the iconic Joe Diffie, knows this well. Growing up surrounded by the sounds that defined '90s country, Parker felt the immense weight and privilege of his father's legacy. Following Joe Diffie's passing in 2020, Parker took on the responsibility of honoring his father's memory while also forging his own artistic identity.
This is a rare opportunity to hear and see the performance of the classic hits that made Joe Diffie a household name, sung by the person who knew him best. Expect to hear beloved songs like "John Deere Green" and "Pickup Man," delivered with a personal touch and deep respect for the original music. But this night is more than just a tribute; it's a showcase of Parker's own musical journey. Parker will also perform some of his original songs, giving the audience a glimpse into his unique voice and storytelling.
The Journey of a Son of Country
Parker's career has been a testament to resilience and hard work. He has worn many hats, from musician on the road to manager, all while navigating the challenges of life and family. This diverse background has shaped him into a compelling performer and storyteller. His passion for connection is evident in everything he does, including his podcast, "Who Do We Think We Are," where he shares meaningful conversations about life and creativity.
Recently, Parker has teamed up with another son of a country music icon, Jesse Keith Whitley, the son of the legendary Keith Whitley. Together, they have formed the duo "Sons of Country," a project dedicated to celebrating the legacies of their fathers while also sharing their own artistic talents. This collaboration underscores a shared commitment to preserving the spirit of classic country music for a new generation of listeners.
