About Paradise Fears
Emo-influenced alternative rock band Paradise Fears were formed in Vermillion, South Dakota by several high-school classmates. The six-member group features Sam Miller (vocals), Jordan Merrigan (guitar), Cole Andre (guitar), Lucas Zimmerman (drums), Michael Walker (keyboards), and Marcus Sand (bass). After graduating, Paradise Fears began performing and recording their music and released several EPs, including 2008's The Secret to Dropping Out and 2010's Make Them Believe. In 2011, they released their full-length debut album, Yours Truly, and toured with several other established acts including All Time Low, the Summer Set, and Forever the Sickest Kids. A headlining toured followed in 2012. ~ Matt Collar
