Probably the funniest thing I have ever seen.

Summerfest '09

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who came out last night.

For anyone who missed it, this picture basically sums up how the night went.

Welcome Brent Collins, our new bass player

So we are very happy to announce that Brent Collins is now the bass player for Triumph and Parade. Brent has been practicing with us for a while and played his first show with us a few weeks ago.

We have been friends with Brent for about 5 or 6 years. He used to be the lead singer/ guitarist for a band called "To Say the Least". We used to play shows and hangout with them all the time back in the day in Kankakee/Wilmington/My old basement/ Many random places

(this was before myspace, twitter, and facebook were invented, when bands could play shows and write music without worrying about how many plays/comments/views they got a day).

With Brent in the band, we all look forward to playing many more shows for a long time.

Also we are doing new promo pictures soon, so you can see us... standing triumphantly together.

peace

Mobfest Show / Practice Space (with pictures)

Hey, folks,

This saturday we are playing a Mobfest show at Fiesta Cantina. We are stoked to be sharing the stage with the Ability and Made Avail... shows with good friends tend to turn out fun as puest. Remember it's 21 and over, so if you aren't over 21... you probably won't get in.

Info:

6/20/09 @ 9:00 P.M.

Fiesta Cantina

3407 N Clark St.

Chicago, IL 60657

Hey.. also .. on Sunday we moved into our practice space and played some music. Our friend Brent came by to practice with us. He is playing bass with us at our Mobfest show this Saturday.

It's a small spot.. but we enjoy it. Picture a musical sweatshop... but replace all the misery and pain with music and excitement and that's what it is. 

We are definitely prepared for excessive perspiration, chronic fatigue, and loading up staircases in order to play music non-stop.

Here are some pictures from last sunday:

so that's that... until next time....

bye.

Tonight we posted our new layout for our myspace page and a brand new song from our new 8 song EP "Carve Your Own Path." The new 8 song EP is now available for purchase on itunes and smartpunk so make sure to check that shiz out.

Things going on with us lately:

1) We are doing an in-studio interview with Fearless Radio on Wednesday June 24th at 6pm. We will be talking about the new release. To listen: http://www.fearlessradio.com - click Listen Now

2) We have a show coming up on June 20th for Mobfest. The show will be 21+ (sorry to our young fans) and we will be playing with our close friends The Ability and Made Avail.

3) Starting June 1st we will have a new practice space in the Chicago where we will be allowed to play music 24 hours a day - 7 days a week. We are very excited to have that kind of access to a place to play music.

Also, check out the video below. Our good friend Katie, a student at DePaul University, taped it as a video promo for the CD Release show we had at Metro on May 10th.
