THE SUN PARADE
The Sun Parade is “crafting the kinds of traditional guitar-pop songs that people might still be singing 50 years down the road (National Public Radio Songs We Love ).” The band’s latest EP Heart’s Out (2014) is a catalog of love collisions, casual sandwich obsession, load-bearing grooves, and Northern psychedelic guitar licks. It’s grunge-soaked power-pop. Influenced by Big Pink, the Black Ark, the White Album. and Meth Beach. Based in the great DIY scene of Western Massachusetts, The Sun Parade has opened recently for Lake Street Dive, Dr. Dog, and And The Kids. Their third release is due out this summer.
