Paramore November 11, 2007

Paramore describe their music simply as energetic, emotional and fun. Their live show is an explosion of high energy that showcases the band's relentless drive and desire to connect with and entertain the audience, and their enthusiasm is catching. Hit the Lights is a pop punk band from Lima, Ohio, signed to Triple Crown Records. The band formed in 2003, taking their name from the Metallica song, and quickly found a devoted following with their energetic live performances. Having paired off in other local combos -- Shaant and guitarist Jeff Czum in one, bassist Fred Cimato and drummer Tom Falcone in another -- Cute Is What We Aim For came together in January 2005, driven by the four members and their desire to cast their own upbeat spin onto modern pop.
