What, you don’t know who Paramore are? Well, we’re here to help.
Paramore are a four piece rock band from Franklin, Tennessee. They’re fronted by a distinctively red-headed young lady called Hayley Williams, and the most appropriate description for their music is a kind of emo-infused pop/rock.
The band officially formed back in 2004, but had been friends before that roughly since Williams moved to Tennessee. However, the other founding members, Josh and Zac Farro can probably lay claim to knowing each other the longest.

Paramore are another of those pop/punk bands that I’ve only just become aware of for the first time through this new single. Based on their musical style and the fact that they’re fronted by a girl - Hayley Williams - they’re going to draw the inevitable comparisons with the like of Avril Lavigne.
