Band Information, Part I:
With a pair of full-length albums, a song featured on the Superman Returns soundtrack (a cover of the Foo Fighters' "My Hero") and multiple high-profile appearances on the Vans Warped Tour, Paramore seem like anything but the work of some kids from Tennessee. Singer Hayley Williams was 13 when she was enlisted by guitarist Josh Farro and drummer-brother Zac Farro to form the band. By 2007, Paramore was headlining the Warped Tour and had the aforementioned two albums on the market, courtesy of the Florida-based scene-mongering label Fueled By Ramen.

I love Paramore!
I got into them once I heard Misery Business on the radio. Then I went and downloaded all their music, since they're really awesome.
One of my all time favorites.

Their tunes are so catchy.
And i gotta say, Hayley has one of the best voices i've ever heard, she's amazing live, and all of their acoustic stuff rocks too.
