Parallels
Canadian synthpop band
Parallels, the Canadian synthpop band helmed by front-woman and producer Holly Dodson, has been a distinct presence in the electro and pop music landscape since 2008. Based in Toronto and Los Angeles, Parallels have built a reputation for their shimmering production and melodic songwriting, drawing listeners into a world of modern synth-driven soundscapes. Their catalogue includes a string of acclaimed releases, with the full-length album Supersymmetry arriving in 2021, further cementing their unique blend of nostalgia and forward-thinking pop.
Parallels' discography offers a rich variety of sounds, from standout tracks like "Age of Consent," "Civilization," and "Break the Silence" to evocative EPs such as We Belong and Edge of the Universe. Their music is celebrated for dynamic vocals and lush, retro-futuristic arrangements that bridge the gap between classic synthpop and contemporary indie pop. In October 2025, Parallels headlined at Paper Dress Vintage in London, bringing their signature live music experience and immersive concert atmosphere to UK audiences.
