Artist History Foul Weather Parade has been in the makings for many years, and the songs and concepts have been forming in Creel's head ever since he first came to understand music. The band has been playing gigs since Spring of '02 and are looking to continue building repoire with friends and venues, striving to become a respected name in the Twin Cities music Scene and begin to tour within the next two years.

Group Members Foul Weather Parade is the brainchild and life-long dream of singer/ guitarist Creel. (David Kramer) An Iowa native, he spent much of his life refining his songwriting craft, but never found the ideal market for his style, and thus kept his projects widely back-burner. While on a trip to Minneapolis, Creel was introduced to the burgeoning Twin Cities music scene, and "maybe" quickly became "imagine if.." Excited and energized by the chance to introduce his music to a receptive new audience, Creel moved from Des Moines, Iowa, to the Cities to begin Foul Weather Parade. Creel contacted his brother-in-law, Jeremy Gallant, an extremely talented drummer with whom he had previously worked, and Jeremy caught the vision as well. Jeremy moved from his residence in Dallas to join the project. The two immediately began the search for a bass player, and through an internet musician search found Kris Norberg, a professional bass player/ lead vocalist, who had moved from Fort Wayne, Indiana, to attend Music Tech college. Immediately the three clicked musically and personally. The band was impressed with Kris's ability, professionalism, and aptitude for grasping complex parts quickly. Kris, in turn, was impressed with Creel's songwriting and the ambition and drive the band showed, and promptly signed up, solidifying the band's lineup in late 2001.
