Neptune light

trigger happy culture

When the moral is rotten
and the cause forgotten,
a letter is sent
to the dessert's end.

And as you are reading,
memory kicks in,
of what you must do
and who did the sending.

Happy New Year from The Welcome Parade!!

We hope 2022 will be the start of something quite exceptional for everyone.  I think we are all due a bit of a respite from the current state of affairs! 

Lyrics:
I can feel the fire living in the rain
Pay witness to the pleasure hiding in the pain

To hear the craziness of those that you deem sane
A circle left unbroken we'll travel once again

If not today, maybe tomorrow… 
If not for joy, maybe for sorrow…
If not to lead then maybe to follow…
If not to steal then maybe to borrow…

To feel as broken, as I seem to be
All surrendered out my friend, embracing my defeat

The mirror changes nothing except the point view
A gap, a hole,  a thing that takes my place,  takes my place with you

If not today, maybe tomorrow… 
If not for joy, maybe for sorrow…
If not to lead then maybe to follow…
If not to steal then maybe to borrow…

If not for joy, maybe for sorrow…



The Welcome Parade is proud to release our first two tracks of 2022

The Ready -  See "The Ready"

Not Today - This ones development followed a different path than what normally happens in our band.  As usual it starts on Skype...ends up discarded to the "we will get to that later" pile.  The melody however simply refuses to leave my(Jeff's) head.  I string together a rough rhythm guitar track and send it off to the crew and say in the email....this is what this is about for me and I am compelled to finish this. 

Thom sends back a written chorus....and what a chorus it is.  I do a quick performance and once I can hear the thoughts in real time... the verses slide right out of my head on to paper.   Jay moves to the Rhythm guitar, Jeff to lead vocal and bass,  Thom on the lead and aux & rhythm guitar work.

Normally in development the drums and bass get locked in first so everyone can grab on to the vibe once its all figured out.  In this case...the bass was the last instrument to be figured out.  It was a wonderful opportunity to play off my band mates with the bass.  There are times where I rotated to the speakers and imagine my friends in studio/stage across from me as I start digging deeper on the bass.  Something I don't always get to enjoy but something so seductive to feel! 

I hope one day the world looks at us and says...we got to get these guys together!  If not I am just very happy to have a couple of friends with a musical connection that exists as something so natural, it is difficult to keep the components separate, to realize where one ends and another begins. 

You guys rock and I am so glad to have you as friends and musical companions...rock on mi amigos!

It's with great pleasure that Uwe @wust and I release the first track from our new EP project together. Three years ago we collaborated on a track entitled '777', however we both wanted to work on a collection of songs offering a more comprehensive artistic statement. We're working toward completing the EP by early this Summer.
