Child Of The Parish

Child Of The Parish is an audio-visual graphic novel where colorful psychedelic / dance music meets a dark comedy horror story.

Recently released album The Cool Tape Volume 3 with singles 'Falling For You' featuring Justin Bieber and 'Cabin Fever'.

Jaden will be joining Justin Bieber on his 2021 World Tour from February 2022 - June 2022.

Jaden is involved in a number of philanthropic causes, including his I Love You vegan food trucks to feed the homeless and his Water Box initiative, which deploys water filtration systems to underserved communities to give them access to clean water.

At only 10 years old, Jaden developed the concept for JUST Water, a 100% recyclable water carton company that he co-founded and created to help replace single-use plastic bottles. Since its inception, JUST Water has kept nearly 4.4 million pounds of carbon from being released into the environment.

Jaden is an avid activist and fights to empower Gen Z on topics such as: climate change, sustainability, reducing ocean plastics, clean water, voting, and access to education.

The audio-visual project is a venture between writer / producer Ben Vella and his brother Tom Vella, with a graphic novel and art from Pius Bak. Ben and Tom wanted to marry a love for dance, rock and psychedelia music with their passion for graphic novels.
The Child Of The Parish comic follows the story of a boy born as a curse to the dark history of his small English village. The idea is to incorporate the art into live sets that recreate the village on stage with plans to carry the story into new music and beyond.
With millions of streams across platforms, their first single "Before The Moments Gone" launched as a sync on FIFA20 2019 edition. The track also got radio support from Annie Mac and Lauren Laverne. Their second single "Thread The Needles Eyes" was added to BBC Radio 1 Introducing playlist and was Jack Saunders Tune Of The Week.
For future projects, the brothers will keep incorporating the ideas of dance and indie into one creation, bleeding genres and themes together to bring their comic to life.
