Paramore

About

Formed in Tennessee in 2004, when lead singer Haley Williams was still in high school, Paramore packs a punch of pop-punk goodness. Influenced by the addicting power pop sounds of the 1990s and the edge of late 1970s punk, Paramore produces music that is catchy without falling flat by showcasing Williams' clear and well controlled voice. Often compared to the armies of young emo bands, listeners will surely appreciate the different direction Paramore has taken to separate themselves from over-emotional, angst-ridden rock.
