That's a little about me, now you should comment & tell me something about you. What's your favorite holiday? & since it is almost Halloween, what are you dressing up as? So far I still have no idea what to go as this year. Last year I was Laura Croft from Tomb Raider, but I need something new this year.

Now on to the music portion of this blog! This week's artist is actually the first band that I will be featuring. They are a 6 man band called Paradise Fears! Sam Miller (vocals), Cole Andre (guitar/vocals), Lucas Zimmerman (drums), Jordan Merrigan (guitar), Michael Walker (keyboard), & Marcus Sand (bass) make up this amazing band. They are a pop/rock band from Vermillion, SD. Each week they do #TurtleTuesday where they post a video on their Youtube (youtube.com/paradisefears) & they have some fantastic original songs, covers, behind the scenes, & more. This band has been a favorite of mine for about a year & a half. Right now the boys are working on their new album, but you can go to iTunes, Spotify, & Youtube to check out their old stuff. They have also teamed up with Children's Miracle Network & they are giving all of the proceeds from their cover of "The Fighter" by Gym Class Heroes & Ryan Tedder to the Children's Miracle Network. So if you don't buy any other song from them, at least buy this song for the kids, how can you say no to a $0.99 that helps kids. Also, the band has a Facebook (facebook.com/paradisefears) & personal Facebook accounts, plus they have a band Twitter (@paradisefears) & personal accounts there too (@samtwomiller @ParadiseCole @lucaszimmerman7 @jmerrific @mjwalker0 & @markymarky69). As far as any other sites, check out paradisefears.com for any information, paradisefears.tumblr.com, & westapenmerch.com for their merch. Make sure if you can go see them on tour with Go Radio this fall. All the dates are posted on their band Facebook page.

Oh, & there's a special reason why I chose this week to feature them....Thursday is Marcus's 21st birthday! & Friday is Sam's 21st birthday! =D Also, Cole's 21st birthday is October 30th! So happy early birthday Marcus, Sam, & Cole! Hope it's a great one guys! Everyone should go spam their accounts with birthday wishes!

Live for God & Love for Music!
