Paramore Bio's mix of emo-pop and alternative rock & roll eventually made them stars on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. They began their career in Franklin, Tennessee, where Hayley Williams met brothers Josh and Zac Farro after moving to the city from Mississippi with her family in 2004. Already a powerhouse singer at age 13, Williams signed with Atlantic Records as a solo artist, but has been in conflict with the label over the direction of her career and genre of music she should play. Looking to form her own band, Hayley convinced Atlantic Records to let her put together a full lineup. Lead guitarist and backing vocalist Josh and drummer Zac Farro were brought in for the job, as were rhythm guitarist Jason Bynum and bassist Jeremy Davis. John Janick, CEO and co-founder of “Fueled by Ramen”, a Florida-based record label with a strong emo-pop and alternative rock component, was amazed by their sound and decided to go to one of their performances live in Orlando, Florida to see them play live. After seeing these young musical talents, John invited them for a small private performance where he said he wanted to book them. To help attract a younger audience, Atlantic decided to co-sign the band with Fueled by Ramen in 2005. Holding this amazing opportunity in their hands, the band didn't want to waste precious time and began recording their debut album . At that point Jeremy, the bassist, unfortunately had to leave the band for personal reasons. A few days after his departure, the four remaining members of the band wrote a song called "All We Know" as a tribute to Jeremy's retirement. They decided to base the whole album on that. Before the album "All We Know Is Falling" was released, Paramore asked Jeremy to rejoin... middle of paper ......and began to attract fans at the same time. Known for their catchy lines and unique sound, this band confidently released an EP titled "Five Minutes with Arctic Monkeys" with two tracks: "From The Ritz To The Rubble" and "Fake Tales Of San Francisco" on May 30th 2005. The song "Fake Tales of San Francisco" was voted their best song of 2013 by NME Magazine. After the release, they appeared at the 2005 Carling Weekend, where they earned the salute of the audience by performing at their best. However, unique as they are, they refused to sign with any record company at the thought of having come so far thanks to their work and efforts. Contrary to claims, they decided to work under the Domino label in June 2005, because they liked the CEO of Domino Records, Laurence Bell, despite other contracts being offered by bigger labels with bigger sums of money..
