Proxima Parada is the name of my band. The band consists of 4 core members and 2 regular guests. The four core are Nick Larson on guitar, piano, djembe, banjo, and vocals, Clayton Cole on standup bass and backup vocals, Bryson Bailey on guitar, drums, and vocals, and me on trumpet and backup vocals. The two backup musicians are Elliot Rippley on piano and guitar, and Kevin ___ on mandolin and banjo. Basically, everyone dabbles in a few instruments so we jump around a lot in a set.
Roughly half of our set is covers, and half is original. We love playing at coffee shops and recently played a show in my living room which was super fun. Our goal is to play once a week around town, but we have fallen a little behind this quarter because I have been so busy with Poly Escapes trip leader business.
Here's us playing our 'theme song' at our Linnaea's show last night.
