Parsley was born June 23, 1971, and grew up in Reseda, California. She was the daughter of general telephone and electronics employee Lyle Parsley and the former Pam Pollack.[1]
Ambrosia Parsley has released four studio albums and two EPs with Shivaree. In addition to her work with Shivaree, Parsley has appeared on Mocean Worker's album Enter the Mowo and Verbena's La Musica Negra, and has been featured in many other works by other artists.
In April 2004, Ambrosia Parsley embarked on a project for the liberal radio station Air America called Ambrosia Sings the News, providing a short song, usually under a minute or so, always with the same melody, that attempted to encapsulate the contents of the previous week's headlines. Approximately 47-50 installments of "Ambrosia Sings the News" were aired, some of which she performed live. The show was successful enough that a single entitled "2004 (The Year In Review...For Anyone Who Can Bear the Mere Thought)" was sold exclusively via iTunes.
