Short:
Insect indie pop-rock band with original songs about empathy, social justice, and environmental awareness

Long:
An indie pop-rock band for all insects and ages, Bee Parks and the Hornets perform high-energy concert parties that combine rockin’ music, puppetry and audience participation to inspire young people to get up and move — both with their feet and in their communities. With all-original songs that promote kindness, equality, self-confidence, social justice, environmental awareness and dancing your heart out, Bee Parks and the Hornets take audience members of all ages on a musical adventure that will open up spirits and imaginations.

Artist Bio:
Bee Parks and the Hornets is the creative endeavor of Maine-based music and theatre maker, Brittany Parker. Pulling from various musical inspirations, including Motown and 90's alt rock, the band performs original songs about empathy, social justice, self-confidence, the environment, and dancing your heart out -- all performed through an insect lens. Brittany writes many songs for the band, singing lead vocals while playing ukulele and guitar. Hornet Mélissa Smith is also a strong creative force for the band, writing songs as well as authoring a book for children called Insects & Me, A-Z. Other band members make up a rotating roster of Hornets which include Beau Lisy (drums), Jarly Bobadilla (bass guitar), Ingrid Larson (drums), and Cedar Ellis (drums). The band has played at theaters, libraries, museums, schools, zoos, and parks across the East Coast. Their first album, Welcome to Our Hive, can be found on Spotify, iTunes, and all other digital music platforms. For more info, visit beeparksandthehornets.com or follow the band on Facebook and Instagram @beeparksandthehornets.
