New World Parade

The music of New World Parade (formerly the Andy Roberts Group) is jazzed based with a nod towards progressive rock. Listeners will find the music to be melodic with harmonic depth. The musicians bring a high level of improvisation to the mix to create some very exciting performances. Original music and standards. Their influences are transparent. Steely Dan, Weather Report, Yes, Stevie Wonder are among a few. New World Parade is made up of like-minded musicians who can musically "turn on a dime". They move from high energy burns to utter spaciousness and everywhere in-between at any given performance.

About the band: The Four Piece Quartet (also known as The For Peace Quartet) was formed in 1997 as a result of playing jazz worship services around Central Pennsylvania. The intent of the group is to create positive and uplifting music through the use of hymns, secular songs and original music.
