Pocket Parade is a two piece from Portland Oregon. The band is made up of Kate Walsh and Liam Kenna who play optimistic, energetic songs with a touch of honest humor. Both are currently trying to have as much fun as humanly possible. Pocket Parade's sound is at heart based on hummable melodies. Rock drums are melded with synths, horns, electric piano, low-fi guitar, and smiling vocals. Lyrics are intended to be a lighthearted look at making the best out of life and appreciating that everybody dies. Live, Kate plays tenor saxophone and sings while Liam plays drums and sings. Kate is also in a band called Speck Mountain. Liam is also in a band called the SnuggleUps. Thank you for your time!

Pocket Parade in the house! And by house I mean the house of Manhattan. Awesome to share a stage with the wonderful Kate Walsh after a 6 year hiatus. I miss Jazz Ensemble...(but not high school)
Tour de Force! Tour de France! Tour de Farce!! Tourist! Grand Tourismo!!! Sorry. I had to. You guys better have awesome stories about orgies and broken vans and nervous breakdowns and weird ailments and stuff. Oh, and if you can stop banging groupies for ten minutes say hi to Lindsay in the apple. She'll be happy to see yas.
