"A stonking good, original, professional and friendly band to work with - and to watch!"
Paul Bikmore - Manager - Art House, Southampton

The Lantern Parade formed in 2017 - a disparate bunch of accomplished musicians, writers and friends, determined to deliver top quality music and energetic, fun-filled live shows. Six years later and with a fresh face, they're back - and more determined than ever

Woven with forlorn and joyful tales of love and loss, of drunken nights, of beach parties, brauls, riots and landslides - their live shows spectacularly unfold and intertwine seamlessly within the band's trademark, epic sound


Blending their unique, wayward originality with influences from Indie, the 80's, 90's and beyond,
this galactic band of Solar Powered Creatures return to 2023 refuelled, reinvigorated and ready
to bring you their outlandish, floor stomping, retro-dance experience

The addition of Southampton percussionist and producer, Charlie Brown to the parade has elevated the band's ever evolving, genre-bending set -  upping the party vibe to infectious levels - and it's only going to get brighter in 2023 with a new female vocalist, regular shows and releases

"The band feed off the audience’s energy and provide a host of uplifting tunes."
