Second Line Parade

Second Line Parade is Stef Nicholson (Vocals and Guitar), Spencer Clerk (Drums) and Brett Waye (Bass). Together, they have created a powerful Gothabilly Rockablues sound…yes, Gothabilly Rockablues… because it can’t be explained any other way. 

Heavily influenced by old school country, rockabilly, soul, blues, rock and jazz artists of the Deep South, Second Line Parade follows in the footsteps of their southern predecessors. They conjure up a vintage sound that channels the ghosts and hobos you might find along the banks of the Mississippi.

The "To The Damned" album is an amazing album. It is so good... very emotional, lots of grit, great guitar, amazing vocals... You need to buy it. Favorite track: Down Here.- Fan, Eric Boucher
