Rain Parade is a Psychedelic rock act. Their sound grew out of Crazy Horse and The Byrds. Those roots explain a lot about how Rain Parade arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Kaleidoscope, Julian Cope, Spiritualized, Bardo Pond and Black Market Karma, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Mazzy Star, Crazy Horse and The Bangles, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
