Identity is the only album by Zee, a short-lived side project of Pink Floyd keyboardist Rick Wright, a duo partnership consisting of Wright and Dave Harris of New Romantic outfit Fashion, released in 1984.

The album makes heavy use of the Fairlight CMI, a musical synthesizer popularized in the 1980s.[3] This creates a very electronic sound that persists through every track.

"Confusion" was released as a single with "Eyes of a Gypsy" as the B-side.[4]

In 2019, the album was reissued with bonus tracks and a new cover art.[3]
