Mayday Parade is an American rock band from Tallahassee, Florida.Their debut EP Tales Told by Dead Friends was released in 2006, and sold over 50,000 copies without any label support. Although guitarist/backing vocalist Jason Lancaster left the band for personal reasons following its first album, vestiges of his guitar and singing style haunt the standout power ballad “When You See My Friends.” The heartfelt “Happy Endings Are Stories That Haven't Ended Yet” closes with old-school emo balladry. “No Heroes Allowed” follows, boasting one of the album’s best guitar solos and dynamically doubled vocals. “Oh Well, Oh Well” opens as lonely piano notes and strings play under Derek Sanders’ heartbroken inflections then a hi-hat countoff detonates the song into a snarling, rocking emo epic.

Where the band’s sophomore album featured outside songwriters, this time it insisted on crafting its own tunes and keeping the overall sound organic and live.

Mayday Parade steps up its game with an eponymous third studio album that surpasses its critically acclaimed debut LP, A Lesson in Romantics. With a catalog of six studio recordings, the band is celebrating their beginning with the 10th Anniversary Edition of their beloved debut album A Lesson In.
