Parallel Play is a supercharged folk group from Dallas, TX. The band is comprised of Jeremy Drake (guitar/lead vocals), Tomy Lee (banjo and harmony), Erin Gayden (upright bass/harmony) and Pappy McCall (percussion). The group began as a duo in 2008, it's member were long time friends Jeremy Drake and Jason Miears. The full band formed, sans Miears, shortly before the release of their debut album, The Floor's Made of Lava in 2011. Parallel Play has contributed to the local music culture in Dallas frequenting festivals and shows around the metroplex. In 2012 Drake created a festival to showcase local folk and took Deep Ellum by storm. The first annual Deep Ellum's Big Folkin' Festival was a success.

Parallel Play is currently in the studio recording their follow up to The Floor's Made of Lava! due out in 2013.
