| Band Description |
Parklane is 4 piece band that stems originally from Durban and was the birth child of current lead singer Ryan Coetzee.
Parklane, after a very successful introductory music career in 2002/3, with two number 1 hits on 5fm, main-stage acts across South Africa, and at Splashy Fen, disbanded, with Ryan opting to travel around Africa to find inspiration, while the other 2 members focused on their solo careers.
After 6 long years, Ryan finally found the inspiration he went searching for and decided to start the band up again...
After 2 line up changes, 2 drummers and a bassist, they have finally settled on a really awesome line up, with all members being very focused on taking the band to the top as well as having fun and improving not only themselves as individual artists, but as band as well as improving their skills on multiple instruments and genres.
Parklane's diverse sound cannot really be put in to one single genre, and is more a mashup of many into one, but never focusing on one specific style. Their music ranges from Mellow Rock/Ballads to a faster more Punk/Garage style as well as your more popular Alternative Rock/Alternative, to a combination of all 3 or more.
Keep an ear out for this band, they are sure to keep your foot tapping, and head nodding as Byron's melodic bass lines combined with James' foot stomping drum rolls vibrate up your spine and Ryan's captivating voice and powerful lyrics along with Daniels intense lead solo's and grungy distortion catapult you into an unforgettable world.... |
