STONE PARADE BIOGRAPHY

“Heads are sure to turn. Stone Parade have delivered an album that features some epic songs. Stratosphere showcases an album that understands where their sound lies and more importantly where they want to take it.” – DRUM MEDIA, SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

“Home grown rockers Stone Parade strap in and go straight ahead with crunchy riffs and big beats on this independent release. The opening tracks Paranoia and Mr Spaceman are worth the price of admission.” – SUNDAY TELEGRAPH, SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

“Stone Parade are out to make a statement. Their debut album Stratosphere is a heady mix of sonic forces that channels everything from The Killers, Muse, and Australia’s own Wolfmother. The album traverses many genres and showcases their ability for experimentation. Lead single “Paranoia” has afforded the band early success on commercial radio and if the calibre of this album is anything to go by, these lads might just parade themselves to #1 on the album charts.“ - THE AU REVIEW, AUSTRALIA






This is how Australian press are perceiving Sydney band, Stone Parade’s latest offering ‘Stratosphere’. With this album, which was mixed by world reknown producer, Mark Needham (The Killers/My Chemical Romance) the band have embarked on a slighty different path with a more low fi, vibrant, raw appeal.

Formed on Sydney's northern beaches, Stone Parade were winners of the 2008 International Songwriting Competition  (Rock Category) for their song 'Somebody Will Miss You'.  This song went on to be featured on several Australian TV shows for promo.  Stone Parade have toured with the likes of Maroon 5, Hoobastank, 3 Doors Down and most recently with Canadian rock outfit The Trews.   First single 'Paranoia' taken off their current album 'Stratosphere' gained a 6 month synch for Australian free to air sporting television station ONE HD giving the band extensive television coverage.

Fresh from touring internationally in March 2011, where the band took part in Canadian Music Festival sharing the stage with such great Australian artists as Hungry Kids of Hungary, Birds of Tokyo, The Jezabels and Blue KIng Brown, they are now focusing on touring to home crowds.   2011 has seen the band supporting acts such as Thousand Needles in Red, Floating Me and The Art along with their own headlining shows making them one of Australia's most promising and exciting live acts.
