Both will feature in a forthcoming virtual music\/art exhibition, date TBC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With comparisons ranging from Phillip Boa and the Voodoo Club, Arcade Fire, The Mission, The Last Shadow Puppets, Sebadoh and the Editors just who are Para Lia?..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quite simply the band are Ren\u00e9 Methner (Songwriter, Vocals, Guitars, Bass, Keys, Drum Programming) and Cindy Methner (Vocals).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their sound blending the melodic and atmospheric with the beating heart of Rene\u2019s guitar. Pulling in inspiration from various genre and previous generations their sound always retains the alternative indie rock sound and mixes what\u2019s great about retro with a good measure of freshness and originality. Para Lia would be nothing without the soaring and ethereal vocal arrangements. Ren\u00e9\u2019s vocals stand forefront, enhanced by the arrival of the splendour of Cindy\u2019s voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their debut album \u2018Soap Bubble Dreams\u2019 (2019) quickly enjoyed worldwide press coverage and featured in 20 plus magazines, webzines and numerous blogs all unanimous in their praise for the album. The lead single \u2018Hawk Hill\u2019 initially featured on 132 radio station playlists worldwide and continues to see growth to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Para Lia - &#039;Riders On The Dike&#039; (Feat.
