About WHITE LIGHT PARADE* house of commons out now
When the world lets you down, when your government doesn’t speak on your behalf, when your town is all dead ends and dying dreams, there’s always music. That’s the message of ‘House Of Commons’, the debut album from White Light Parade. Formed a few years back in Bradford, West Yorkshire, White Light Parade – aka singer/guitarist Danny Yates, his brother and co-songwriter Jono on vocals and second guitar, bassist Tom Emmett, and drummer Nici Todd. Over the last year they've had two songs in the official top 10 Uk Indie charts and their track Riot In The city is being used as a soundtrack on the recently released Grand Theft Auto 4.
WLP* are all about belief… the sort of belief that’s fostered by setbacks and knock backs, the sort of belief you build because, well, what’s the alternative? The album title is a political one, but don’t mistake this as a respectful tip of the hat to our elected leaders...
Recorded in Devon with Pete Miles, an up-and-coming producer most recently seen on the knobs for the King Blues’ debut album ‘Save The World, Get The Girl’, 'House of commons' is a loud, raucous attack on the establishment.
The album is proceeded by new single ‘Wake Up’ which is the latest in a string of singles that have seen White Light Parade speeding towards the mainstream.
