Identity Parade have been likened to bands such as The Who, The Jam and The Rolling Stones, but have arrived in their own territory when it comes to their unique correlation of raw, upbeat and energetic songs coupled with a retro sound and modern vibe.
Identity Parade have played with big Irish acts such as Republic Of Loose, The Blizzards, Leya, The Revs and have packed out venues such as Whelans, Temple Bar Music Centre and Vicar Street. The band have also traveled the UK, playing gigs in Birmingham and the famous Cavern Club in Liverpool. Identity Parade are building a reputation as one of Ireland's most exciting live acts attracting bigger crowds along the way.
Identity Parade debuted in the Irish Single Charts in May with 'One For The Road'. Watch this space.

REGATTA LIVE REVIEW...
(Reporter: Joel)
With 1900 votes or so Identity Parade got to headline at the first cpu chart gig in Whelan's and from they switched on the ignition to a finely tuned set the crowd loved them. I had not heard their music before but became a fan after the first few songs. A Dublin four piece, they had fantastic, straightforward and honest songs. Musically if Mick Jagger and Roger Daltrey had children together, Identity Parade would have been their grandkids. Their chorus attracted people walking by the Whelans back door. Top marks!
ONLINE REVIEW...
Identity Parade topped the CPU online charts with 1977 votes, and quickly came across as the most well established act. They had that professional, showmanship edge with no dragged out, inter-song tuning and time wasting. They were also probably the most accessible of all tonights bands, and proved worthy of the headline slot. Musically they reminded me a little of the Undertones, having that same laid back energy, and effortless cool. They put out a solid set.
Thanks for the consideration. I'm doing free stuff for good bands to get my name out there. So, let me know. ryan@delongchampsound.com or just contact me through Myspace mail.
