Death Parade

Death Parade, formerly known as Laura Palmer's Death Parade, is a musical project led by Laura Hopkins. Hopkins is also a founding member of the band Blackwater Holylight, where she served as a songwriter, singer, guitarist, and bassist for their first two albums. Death Parade's music has evolved over time, initially having an indie dreampop feel before shifting towards a heavier sound. Their recent album, *It Was Worth It to Love, Though It Hurt So Bad*, reflects this evolution, featuring tracks like "Swimming," "Somewhere to Stay," and "Coming to the City." The album is a deeply personal and emotional work, capturing themes of love, vulnerability, and resilience.

Death Parade's sound is characterized by its moody chamber rock aesthetic, often exploring themes of personal struggle and introspection. The band's lineup includes Laura Hopkins alongside other talented musicians like Eirinn Lou Riggs, Danny Metcalfe, and Robert Grubaugh. Their music is a testament to the power of catharsis through creative expression, offering listeners a journey through the complexities of human emotion.
