COLENSO PARADE

BIOGRAPHY:

Irish band formed in 1984 by Oscar (vocals), Linda Clandinning (keyboards), Jackie Forgie (guitar), Neil Lawson (bass) & Robert Wakeman (drums). After releaseing their debut single on their own Goliath label, the band re-located to London and replaced Forgie with London based, Laurieston born guitarist Terry Bickers. A second single led to a deal with Fire Records, who released their debut album, "Glentorran" in 1986. Bickers then left to join The House Of Love, and the band carried on for one more single before splitting.
