The band also appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman four times, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno twice, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and Jimmy Kimmel Live! twice. They have released five studio albums, one live album, and are signed to Dave Matthews label ATO Records and New West Records.

“Sunlight Tonight", Parker's first album as a solo artist was released in November 2018 by the New West Records subsidiary Normaltown Records. Produced, Mixed, and Engineered by Grammy Award winner Emery Dobyns (Antony and The Johnsons, Patti Smith), the album includes contributions from Patrick Carney (Black Keys), Sol Seppy (Sparklehorse), Samuel Dixon (Adele), and Faye Webster among others.  Parker supported the album with a headlining club tour and support tours for Valerie June, SUSTO, RNDM, and Futurebirds.
