WITH PARAMORE, THAT IS WHAT YOU GET

Josh and Zac Farro talk about the bands 3rd single ‘That’s What You Get’ which is off their Gold certified hit album ‘Riot!’

After the tremendous chart success of the singles ‘Misery Business’ and ‘CrushCrushCrush,’ Paramore have released their 3rd single from the groundbreaking album ‘Riot!’ The album, which is the bands 2nd record, but first on Atlantic Records, showcases a rising band with talented songwriters and a vocalist that appears ready to take the music world by storm. Paramore, which consists of brothers Zac and Josh Farro along with bassist Jeremy Davis and vocalist Hayley Williams have rode their success of ‘Riot!’ all the way to a Gold certified album, with sales now over 800,000 and an array of accolades including a “Best New Artist” nomination at this year’s 50th Annual Grammy Awards and “Band of the Year” honors from Alternative Press. Having toured nearly non-stop since coming together in 2004, Paramore also recently sold out every show of its 22-date North American headline trek and now the band has released the single ‘That’s What You Get.’

We caught up with Josh and Zac to get their thought on Paramore’s latest single.

“I wrote that music sort of sitting in my bedroom and I was like ‘Oh, it’s pretty cool.’ So I brought it to Hayley and I think we wrote it in Orlando, Florida like Hayley was writing the lyrics. She’s like ‘I think I have something to this.’ It’s sort of about, you know, it’s a pretty self explanatory song. Like the lyrics are really simple that’s what you get when you let your heart win and you don’t really think with your head. You’re more thinking based on a feeling.”

Paramore are currently touring with Jimmy Eat World and both bands will be performing at The Bamboozle festival on Saturday, May 3rd at the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey. From there, the band will cross the Atlantic to headline the UK’s annual Give It A Name festival, slated for May 10th and 11th in London and Sheffield, respectively.
