The band have been together since 2007. Steve and Phil met whilst at school and even worked together as labourers. They met Chad at college and then became aware of Andy and Ben on the local music scene. They recently signed to Parlophone, a major British label, which includes artists such as Coldplay and Kylie Minogue. The name came about from the days when Phil was working as a plasterer and Steve his labourer. It used to require early mornings and travelling to get to their various jobs. They referred to this as doing the 'morning parade'. They also say the name refers to the transition period between night and day.

Morning Parade have an album to be released in 2011 and have so far released one track off that album, "Under the Stars" which was played on Zane Lowe's show on BBC Radio One, and released on November 29, 2010. It was also featured on The Vampire Diaries. The band released the video for Under the Stars on December 2 on You Tube, which was first shown exclusively on The Sun's website on November 30. The song has been played on Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, XFM, Absolute Radio and Q Radio.

Morning Parade have so far released their first single, "Under the Stars". Their second single will be "A and E" and is to be release in February. It will include "Marble Attic" as a b-side along with two remixes. Other songs they have performed have been "Cardiac Arrest", "Headlights", "All I See", "Home To Me" and "Pieces". The b-side to "Under The Stars" is "Monday Morning", played live for the first time at The Square, Harlow,at the band's homecoming gigs. They have also received praise from MTV and Vogue.

Their so far unnamed debut album will be released in 2011. The single 'Under the Stars' has already been released off that album as well as B-sides 'Monday Morning', 'In the Name' and 'Your Majesty'. They have been recording the album at the '13 Studios' owned by Damon Albarn and been working with longtime Blur collaborator Jason Cox. They have already supported the likes of Feeder and Florence and the Machine and were even a low support act at a pub gig with Kylie Minogue. In the summer of 2010, they played at many major music festivals including Newquay, Latitude Festival and Underage Festival as well as playing to local crowds at Stortford Music Festival, Rhythm Of The World Festival in Hitchin and Caz Fest. They completed 2010 with two sold out gigs at The Square in their home town of Harlow. On November 29, 2010 they announced their 2011 UK tour.
