Condolences: Mimi Parker
Brian Rickman, Station Manager of Duluth-Superior Area Educational Television Corporation-owned Triple A WDSE (The North 103.3)/Duluth, MN, commented, “We, at The North 103.3 FM in Duluth, MN were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our dear friend Mimi Parker, founding member of the seminal band Low. As a tribute to her enormous influence in the world of modern American music and with deep respect, The North will suspend its regularly scheduled programming on Monday, November 7th, to highlight her acclaimed contributions throughout the day.”
In addition to her husband, Alan, Parker is survived by the couple’s two children, Hollis and Cyrus.
