!mindparade and Precocious Neophyte at Trident Cafe

!mindparade

!mindparade blends elements of art pop, psych, and experimentalism. Their music has been described as “an ambitious low-fi bedroom symphony marked by flourishing psychedelic arrangements” (NUVO) and “a perfect slice of what’s best in Oregon Pop Music.” (Oregon Arts Watch). Currently based in Portland, Oregon. In 2020, the group founded their own label, Neon Underground Archives, in order to self-release their genre-bending records.

Precocious Neophyte

Precocious Neophyte (PrecOneO) is the shoegaze/dreampop project of South Korean singer-songwriter Ham Jeehye. After relocating to the U.S., Jeehye began experimenting with home recording in Chicago. She embraces a lo-fi aesthetics for PrecOneO to create a fuzzy yet expansive sound inspired by the organized noise of bands she grew up with in Korea‘s indie scene.

From PrecOneO’s debut album Home in the Desert (Graveface Records, 2023) to the more recent Stony EP (Longinus Recordings, 2024), Jeehye negotiates impossible longings for perpetual spaces and times of home, filling unstable distances with overdriven warmth and cradling the insecurities of isolation in layers of distorted guitars.

After moving to Boulder in 2025, co-producer and guitarist Ethan began participating more in writing and recording, and the band has been performing actively in Colorado with new members Davis Rowan (drums) and Joe Grobelny (bass).
