Born under a barstool and raised by wild koalas, Painless Parker is everything your mamma warned you about musicians. Behind the monicker, the moustache, and the always dapper vests lies Noam Berg. American born and raised in Haifa, Israel, Noam started playing guitar in high school and picked up Mandolin in college. His first band was Israeli punk trio Fishyboom, formed with an army buddy from the IDF. Leaving Israel (and Fishyboom) for college in California, Noam eventually landed in Brooklyn and began using Painless Parker as a sandbox for various musical ideas. Friends liked what they heard and proper gigs soon followed. Outside of his work (ha! work) as Painless Parker, Noam plays in local PFS Co-op band Rare Spirits.
