Singer/songwriter Christian Parker will be releasing Change is Now: A Tribute To The Byrds on March 22, 2024 following on from 2022’s tribute to their album Sweetheart of the Rodeo, titled Sweethearts. New single from the album, “She Don’t Care About Time” is out now.

Parker explains the choice:

“She Don’t Care About Time” was the perfect track to showcase songs that should have been a number one hit but were overlooked. This is one of my favorite tracks on Change Is Now and it’s the first track we recorded for both tribute albums to the Byrds.

With an emphasis on Roger McGuinn’s 12-string guitar playing, Change Is Now explores what made Parker fall in love with the band in the first place, and McGuinn’s Rickenbacker is heard from the very first note of “She Don’t Care About Time.” 

“She Don’t Care About Time” finds Parker joined by Todd Staudinger on harmonies throughout.

Parker comments:

It was a 30-year reunion for us singing together. I was thrilled to have him as part of this project. As we always used to say: ‘We have the blend!’

Rounded out by Gary Jacob performing the guitar solo, “She Don’t Care About Time” is an ode to the Byrds’ oft-overlooked B-side to the hit “Turn! Turn! Turn!”.
