Parabola is an American rock band formed in Collinsville, Connecticut, in 2023. Their musical style has yet to find itself as the band have only released three songs, but they described themselves as having influences from pop, alternative rock, progressive rock, and djent. The band consists of guitarist/vocalist Kasper Ocheduszko, bassist/vocalist Fiona Radmore, and drummer/vocalist/producer Casio Robinson. All Parabola material is produced by Robinson.

Formation

Parabola was formed in 2023 by guitarist Kasper Ocheduszko and drummer Casio Robinson, since they had been with the band for a bit and thought they should start getting serious about it. Before and during Parabola's formation, Robinson had long prior developed a reputation for making his own music as his solo project CasioRobinson, as well as producing other bands such as Behold Here's Poison.

Lineup Changes

The band existed since 2017 but had never created or released music. They just played covers and did not have a band name. This band consisted of Ocheduszko on guitar, Radmore on bass, and Mia Ausiello on vocals. Robinson joined the band on guitar in 2021, and Ausiello left the band in late 2022. The band went on to release the single Sad Grapes In A Bag in March 2023. Aruna Lucier joined in mid-2023 as vocalist, as well as Piper Normand a little later, also on vocals. Normand ended up leaving in December as she just was too busy to contribute to the band meaningfully. The band released the single Voices shortly after.

Lucier was fired in late march of 2024. The band has yet to release a statement.

First Releases

The band have released three singles to date, and they have announced an upcoming album named Mirrors.

Mirrors

Mirrors is the band's upcoming debut album. It was initially set to release on May 24, 2024, but the band has now delayed the release after the lineup change with Lucier being fired.

Sad Grapes In A Bag

Radmore said she once described raisins as "sad grapes in a bag" and the band liked it so much they used it as the song title for their first single, an instrumental song mostly written by herself and Ocheduszko, with production and additional instruments done by Robinson. It was released on March 1, 2023.

Voices

The band released their second single, Voices, on January 22, 2024. The instrumental was written by Ocheduszko and Robinson; however, Lucier's friend helped to write the lyrics during the recording session. The song actually did very well having been promoted by Robinson and Behold Here's Poison, and the band later announced they are working on a summer release.

Remedy

The band's third single for their upcoming release was released on March 12, 2024. Remedy was almost entirely written by Ocheduszko and Robinson, and is perhaps the best showcasing of their musical ability yet, as it features soaring vocal harmonies and a guitar solo. It also features a callback to Voices at the end of the second verse. During Ocheduszko's part ("I try, I try"), Robinson does background vocals using the melody from the line in Voices - "they linger, they linger".
