Light Parade was formed by Andreas Lindh and married couple Peter and Louise Marchione in the beginning of 2010. In their youth, Andreas and Peter had been a part of the same scene in their hometown of Eskilstuna, but it was not until a random meeting in a clothing store in central Gothenburg that a real friendship developed. It didn’t take long for Peter to join Andreas band of that time, Love Is Not My Only Crime, while at the same time Peter and Louise where also making synth pop under the name Thermostatic. When both bands disbanded at roughly the same time, the trio felt that the time was right to make something of that project that had been the focus of discussion during the long, hazy party nights at Peter and Louise’s apartment in Gamlestaden.
