Birdland Music And Recording in Lansdale, PA is run by Baird Parker, son of Charlie Parker, Jr.
Charles “Bird” Parker was born August 29, 1920 and died March 12, 1955. Charlie was an American jazz saxophonist and composer and is still one of the most influential musicians. He was given the nickname “Yardbird” early in his career. Over time, the name became shortened to “Bird”. The name inspired him to write the compositions “Yardbird Suite”, “Ornithology” and “Bird of Paradise.”
