When a group of oddball childhood friends leaped onto their high school stage in 2015 and channeled
their fun and chaotic energy into music, so was born the 5-piece band, Dream Parade. Since their
spontaneous formation, the band’s music has evolved into a velvety psychedelic-pop, twined in
ethereal guitar riffs, and elevated by dreamy basslines. The throaty lyrics evoke the darkness of
lakeside summer nights, the complexities of relationships, and explore the delicate tension between
hope and despair. Still, they preserve the wild energy and determination not to take themselves too
seriously that brought the group together in the first place. “Why are you trying to fight it?”
