Kavalkade Biography

Kavalkade is an American Melodic Death Metal band hailing from Santa Cruz/San Jose, California. Formed in 2019, the band was born from the reunion of longtime friends Luke and Cory, who reconnected to reignite their passion for heavy music. As former members of Imperium, they channeled their experience into crafting a fresh yet familiar sound—staying true to the intensity of Melodic Death Metal while forging a path of their own.


Fusing searing melodic riffs, punishing drumwork, and rage-fueled vocals, Kavalkade delivers a relentless sonic assault. Their music is defined by intricate songwriting, towering choruses, and an unrelenting energy that demands headbanging with no restraint.

Hailed as “one of the most promising up-and-coming metal acts” by Spiderhands Productions, Kavalkade has released three singles to critical acclaim. Their dynamic compositions and infectious hooks have caught the attention of fans and critics alike, with Spiderhands Productions stating:


“That is genuinely one of the catchiest hooks I’ve heard in a really long time, especially within the Rock and Metal genres.”


Currently, Kavalkade is hard at work on their highly anticipated debut album, “Deathwish”, set for release in 2025.
