American rock band Paramore have recorded songs for six studio albums, a box set, an extended play and two soundtrack albums. In 2002, at age 13, vocalist Hayley Williams moved to Franklin, Tennessee, where she met brothers Josh Farro and Zac Farro. [1] [2] The band was officially formed by Josh Farro (lead guitar and backing vocals), Zac Farro (drums), Jeremy Davis (bass guitar) and Hayley Williams (lead vocals) in 2004, [3] with the later addition of Williams' neighbor Jason Bynum (rhythm guitar). In 2005, Paramore signed with the New York City-based Fueled by Ramen but Davis would soon after leave, and be replaced with John Hembree. The band released their debut album entitled All We Know Is Falling that year. Three singles were released to promote the album. Davis would rejoin shortly after.

Bynum left the band in 2005. Hunter lamb replaced Bynum in 2006 but later left the band. Davis would be removed from the band for a second time, but shortly rejoined once more. Taylor York, who had been in a band with the Farro brothers before the two met Hayley Williams, joined as a touring guitarist in 2007. The band released their second album, Riot! , in 2007. The lead single, "Misery Business", became their first charting single in the Billboard Hot 100 and certified single. [4] The next year, Paramore contributed to the Twilight film soundtrack with two original songs, including the hit single "Decode".

In 2009, the band released their third studio album, also announcing that York would become an official member, Brand New Eyes . Williams and Josh Farro wrote most of the songs together, while York had writing credits in some of them. After promotion for Brand New Eyes ended, the Farro brothers announced their departure of the band in 2010. In 2011, Paramore recorded an original song for the Transformers: Dark of the Moon film soundtrack and released a box set entitled Singles Club with three original songs, "In The Mourning", "Renegade", and "Hello Cold World". In 2013, they released their fourth studio album, Paramore , which debuted at number one on Billboard 200. The album produced two of Paramore's biggest hits "Still into You" and "Ain't It Fun". Davis would later leave in 2015 but Zac Farro would return in 2017. In May 2017, they released their fifth album After Laughter. Four singles have been released for this album, "Hard Times", "Told You So", "Fake Happy", and "Rose-Colored Boy".

The band returned after a four-year hiatus with their single "This Is Why" on September 28, 2022, from their 2023 album of the same name. The full album was released on February 10, 2023.

Paramore is an American rock band from Franklin, Tennessee, formed in 2004. The band currently consists of lead vocalist Hayley Williams, guitarist Taylor York and drummer Zac Farro. Williams and Farro are founding members of the group, while York, a high school friend of the original lineup, joined in 2007. The band was formerly signed to Fueled by Ramen, a subsidiary of Atlantic Records, both owned by Warner Music Group. Williams was separately signed to Atlantic as she was scouted when she was a teenager, and they were the only label to let her stay in the band instead of going solo, but Atlantic said the rest of the band had to sign to Fueled by Ramen. She is also the only member to appear on all six of Paramore's studio albums.

Its production was handled by James Paul Wisner, Mike Green, Nick Trevisick, and Roger Alan Nichols. The departure of bassist Jeremy Davis, which occurred a few days after arriving in Orlando, served as the album's main theme. This theme was reflected especially in the album's cover and title.
