Rain Parade

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Rain Parade were a band active in the Paisley Underground scene in Los Angeles in the 1980s. Its founding members were Matt Piucci (guitar) and brothers David Roback (guitar) and Stephen Roback (bass guitar),who had been in a band called The Unconscious with Susanna Hoffs (who went on to lead the most famous of the Paisley Underground bands, The Bangles.) The band soon added Will Glenn (keyboards and violin).

Rain Parade had been originally called the Sidewalks, and self-releasing their debut single, "What She's Done to Your Mind". This led to a deal with local independent rock label Enigma Records, and the album Emergency Third Rail Power Trip.

The band continued to record after the departure of David Roback, releasing the EP, Explosions in the Glass Palace, a live album (Beyond The Sunset) recorded in Japan, and eventually a second album (Crashing Dream) on Island Records.
