Paradise Fears:

Paradise Fear is a band consisting of six high school/ college students in Vermillion, South Dakota. With their infectiously catchy and musically developed rock-pop songs, this band sure knows how to touch the hearts of many young people struggling with issues. Their music infuses elements of pop, alternative and even spoken word and they maintain above all, an authentic and genuine lyrical message. The band is made up of Sam Miller, Cole Andre, Michael Walker, Jordan Merrigan, Lucas Zimmerman and Marcus Sand.

They saved up all of their money from working full time jobs, deferred their college admissions and recorded an album, produced by Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount. On June 14th, 2011, the band released their debut full length "Yours Truly," and set out following every US pop rock tour. During the summer of 2012, the band sold out headlining shows in eight major markets. In just 8 months, their Facebook, Twitter, and social networking profiles have acquired tens of thousands of fans/ followers, and are still rapidly expanding by hundreds daily.



The connections they have built with their listeners and their genuine passion and compassion for their fans has resulted in a maniacal, loyal, and constantly growing fan base that calls themselves the Turtles. 

They have since released their most recent EP "Battle Scars". Along with their original music, the band has released several covers on Youtube, including a cover of Payphone by Maroon 5 which has accumulated over 2.8 million views.

I find their music very inspirational and very innovative.
