Since releasing their gold-certified debut All We Know Is Falling in 2005, the 3x-Grammy-nominated band has shot to international stardom thanks to a strong connection with its fans which has translated into a string of platinum and gold singles, including Misery Business, Crushcrushcrush, and That’s What You Get from 2007’s platinum-certified Riot!, Decode from 2008’s Twilight soundtrack, The Only Exception from 2009’s platinum brand new eyes, and Monster from 2011’s Transformers: Dark of the Moon soundtrack. It’s also led to a series of sold-out arena tours across the globe, including their last sold out UK tour which culminated in 2 nights at London’s O2 Arena in November 2010. Most recently, the band played Reading /Leeds festival in 2012, topping the bill under the Cure on the main stage, and they played an intimate special club show on April 5th of this year at London’s Garage to celebrate the release of current album Paramore.
