A Lesson in Romantics

A Lesson in Romantics is the debut studio album from American rock band Mayday Parade. After the merger of Kid Named Chicago and Defining Moment, Mayday Parade was formed. In June 2006 the band released an EP, Tales Told by Dead Friends, which they sold to people at Warped Tour. Selling 10,000 copies of the EP, the band signed to Fearless in August. Recording in early 2007 A Lesson in Romantics was produced by Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount. Vocalist/guitarist Jason Lancaster left the band in March 2007 citing a lack of writing credit on the band's releases. Prior to the release of A Lesson in Romantics, "Black Cat", "When I Get Home, You're So Dead" and "Jamie All Over" were made available for streaming. The band went on the 2007 edition of Warped Tour.
