Calendar Pick: Slow Parade

Slow Parade

Atlanta-based roots rock band Slow Parade is celebrating the release of its third record, Maybe You’ll Come Around, which was recorded over the course of just three days in order to capture its lushness and twang in their most natural light. This relatively stripped-back album is reminiscent of Harvest-era Neil Young and The Band’s Music from Big Pink, and its characters are intriguingly lackadaisical, “low on gas, incurious of redemption, and probably high on something,” as described by Slow Parade. Its founder, Matthew Pendrick, developed his musical prowess by busking around Atlanta and sharing stages with musicians such as Daniel Romano, CW Stoneking, Israel Nash and T. Hardy Morris, but now seems to have found his artistic identity via Slow Parade. The show will also feature Los Angeles shoegaze act Houston in the Blind and Athens act Bronze Brain.

WHO: Slow Parade, Houston in the Blind, Bronze Brain
WHEN: Sunday, Mar. 31, 8 p.m.
WHERE: The World Famous
HOW MUCH: $10 suggested donation
