Lisa P was born in Quincy Massachusetts and grew up in lots of places around the USA finally ending up back in Boston. She comes from a rich musical backround starting with saxophone in the 4th grade, "The Amazing Roma Band" in High school , and a family of "individuals" who play music all the time.

After HS, she joined a funk band called Flunky (later called Superhoney) and they played while people danced all night long. They played with George Clinton, Maceo Parker, G Love and many others. Flunky made two albums.

Lisa P learned how to play drums because she wanted to be part of the intense and awesome world of Boston Hardcore with her band Big Wig. They played with lots of bands including Def Tones, Powerman 5000, Tree, and tons more. Big Wig made their record with Brian McTernan (Thrice).

Lisa P started writing songs with her bike courier friend and became part of the Boston Punk Rock scene with her band HEIDI. HEIDI played with Rancid, Bosstones, Stone Temple Pilots, Cypress Hill, Darkbuster, J Mascis, and again, tons more. HEIDI recorded her demo with Scott Reibling (Letters to Cleo and "Scotty Doesnt Know".

When HEIDI got signed to Warner Brothers out of Boston, Lisa P left her band director job in Randolph Massachusttes (go Big Blue) to be part of the very unsavory and unmusical world of the LA music industry. They made an awesome record with Bob Marlette but when one record executive president replaced another record executive president at WB, HEIDI got dropped.

Lisa P got another teaching job and started writing songs on her crappy four track in her Hollywood Oakwood apartment. She became a singer and learned how to play guitar. Lisa P met Brucie and they started putting musicians together around these songs. This music is the result of that....

"Out of the Funbox" was produced by LisaP and Jackie Subeck (one of the founding foremothers of PARAde) "Beautiful Possibiblity" is the title track off of Lisa Parade's new EP, produced by LisaP and Bob Marlette ....stay tuned as there is more to come....To contact us Visit our websiteLoveaparade.com Call. 818-337-8066 Email.

We are LisaP from Boston and Brucie from Arkanasas. The rest of our band is like a river and each show is amazingly dynamic, fun, creative, different and "in the moment". We love our music so much. We work hard at it every day but we try not to take ourselves too seriously. Lisa P playes lots of instruments and you can hear her on the reocrdings and live too. We hope you love our music and it stays in your carousel.

YOU are a Beautiful Possibility
