About
Losing two founding members is enough to make most bands throw in the towel. Not the case for Tennessee-based emo rockers Paramore, who emerged from the setback stronger than ever with 2013's chart-topping Paramore, their fourth -- and most successful -- album to date. While the new lineup seems to be exploring new genres (synthpop, gospel), their legion of loyal fans will be happy to find that the hard-hitting, emotional sound the band is known for is still there – along with singer Hayley Williams’ iconic flame-colored hair. From the frenetic aggression of pop-punk lead single "Now" to the bubblegum hopefulness of "Still Into You," Paramore the LP encapsulates the best of the band’s work and proves that changes aren’t always a bad thing. Back on the road as a three-piece in 2013, there’s never been a better time to grab tickets to see Paramore in concert -- the intense charisma of frontwoman Hayley Williams has earned the band a reputation as a consummate live act.
When Paramore formed in 2004, none of the members were over the age of 18 -- a fact that sheds some light on their popularity among tweens and Twilight fans (two of the band’s songs feature prominently on the Twilight soundtrack). The band’s 2005 debut All We Know Is Falling earned them a spot on the Vans Warped Tour, as well as supporting slots with genre-mates Simple Plan. Bolstered by favorable reviews from British mags Kerrang! and NME, the band followed up in 2007 with platinum-certified Riot!, an album characterized by the bitter emotionalism of songs like “Misery Business” and “That’s What You Get.” After extensive touring in 2008 with fellow pop-punkers Jimmy Eat World and No Doubt, the band returned to the studio to record 2009’s Brand New Eyes, which, despite its debut at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, was their last release under the original lineup.
In the wake of their near-breakup, remaining members Hayley Williams, Jeremy Davis (bass), and Taylor Young (guitar) have found new freedom to experiment with the band’s sound, and given Williams’ stated influences (The Cure, Etta James), there’s a lot of territory to explore. Considering the No.1 debut of 2013’s Paramore and the glowing reviews for the bands stripped-down live setup, the new formula seems to be suiting them just fine.
Throughout their career, Paramore have drawn massive crowds of fans, packing venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre and Tabernacle to capacity.

Absolutely amazing show!
by Teri on 8/7/23Rating: 5 out of 5Oh my gosh. This was an amazing show. Paramore puts on such an incredible performance each time!
amazing!
by britt on 8/7/23Rating: 5 out of 5Such a great show! They are awesome to see live. I would definitely go to another one of their shows.
Amazing Interactive Experience
by Billy on 8/7/23Rating: 5 out of 5This wasn't just a concert. The Linda Lindas came out and slayed. They have a really fun sound and will be headlining their own shows soon. The Foals were really talented. Paramore came out and almost blew the roof off the Enterprise Center. The music is better in person than on cd or radio. Hayley Williams has the ability to tell a story and uses her platform to question social issues and the injustices of this world. 12 out of 10 would go again

One of the best shows I’ve seen
by Allen on 8/5/23Rating: 5 out of 5While I’ve been a long time fan of the band (since the beginning), this was my first Paramore show. Amazing energy from both the band and the audience and solid performance! 10/10 would see again.
Excellent show!
by Christine on 8/5/23Rating: 5 out of 5An excellent show all around. Hayley Williams is a terrific front woman (and singer!) and knows how to connect with the audience. Paramore is uber-talented.
Paramore and More and More!!!
by Timateo on 8/5/23Rating: 5 out of 5Too bad this concert had to end. Paramore put on a wonderful show and the Xcel Energy Center is a nice venue for a concert. The opening acts Linda Linda's and Goals were amazing!! Hopefully Paramore tours again. Rose Colored Boy and Ain't it Fun? were the highlights that evening
Energetic and fun!
by Randi on 8/5/23Rating: 4 out of 5Great show! Hayley was a ball of energy and she made the crowd wild, especially with all the band’s older music. Would definitely recommend anyone who loves Paramore’s new and old music. The openers The Linda Linda’s and FOAL were great, too!

Amazing Paramore Show
by Brianna D on 8/5/23Rating: 5 out of 5Paramore always puts on a great show. This time was no different. The band has such great energy and it shows through their performance.

Awesome
by Feeb on 8/5/23Rating: 4 out of 5Not super great sound quality in person, more loud rather than clear. Not a super great view
Paramore gets better every year!!
by Sheesh on 8/5/23Rating: 5 out of 5Phenomenal show! Paramore puts everything they’ve got into each performance. It’s very clear that they put a lot of thought into giving their fans the best experience. Simply amazing. Also the Linda Lindas and Foals were wonderful openers.
Wouldn't shut up and just sing
by Sean on 8/5/23Rating: 2 out of 5Unfortunately she would not stop talking about politics. Ranting about global warming at the same time she's using enough electricity to power my home town. Eventually I just left. Being a star doesn't mean you're also smart.
