Parlour Panther

Parlour Panther possess an irresistible allure with their captivating chemistry, leaving a profound impact on listeners through their genuine emotional expression and exceptional vocal and guitar skills. They have graced renowned festivals such as the Vancouver International Jazz Festival, Philadelphia Folk Festival, and Vancouver Pride Festival, and have had the privilege of sharing the stage with esteemed artists like The Suffers, Royal Canoe, and Y La Bamba.

The enchanting indie rock band is made up of Frankie and Lee- a trans non-binary couple who have been creating music together since 2014. Frankie brings their expertise in recording engineering, production, and popular song arrangements, while Lee contributes their background as a lyricist and classically trained vocalist and choral singer. Whether it's just Frankie on vocals, guitar, and drum machine, and Lee on vocals, synths, and bass, or they are joined by their collaborators Jen Foster on drums and Saadi D'Hoore on synths and guitar, they never fail to deliver a massive sound.

Parlour Panther burst onto the Vancouver music scene with their debut album "Hot Magic" in 2018, showcasing their distinctive and daring sound. Their follow-up release, "Retrograde," which was recorded entirely in their home studio during the pandemic, received critical acclaim after its release on Coax Records in August 2021. The album made waves by being featured on CBC's The Early Edition and securing a spot on the !Earshot National Top 50 chart for an impressive 12 weeks. Additionally, it was recognized as one of DOMINIONATED Magazine's Top Fifty releases of 2021. Now, the band is embarking on a new musical journey with their upcoming album - with their dear friend Saadi rejoining the band on synths and guitar (he played bass & guitar on early releases - Arc en Ciel, Foreign Lust and Hot Magic) and Jen Foster joining on drums (Hyaenas, Rong) with Monarch and Blue Light Studios, you will want to keep an eye out for what Parlour Panther has in store, as they are undoubtedly a rising force to be reckoned with.
