Borrowing sounds and rhythms from '60s pop, '70s soul, and '80s electro,
The Parade is the genre-straddling third album from
Smooth, the French electric trio fronted by
David Darricarrère. Released in 2010, the follow-up to The Endless Rise of the Sun includes the single "Friendly Yours" alongside collaborations with emerging talent Amelie ("Music") and singer/songwriter
Dominique A ("I Know").
