Formed in June 2024, The Paradox quickly became a sensation in the pop-punk scene. Their rise was fueled by their distinct identity as young, African American musicians, captivating an audience that the internet wasn’t prepared for. The band features Eric Dangerfield on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Rayman on bass, Xelan on lead guitar and background vocals, and PC3 on drums.
From their very first performance, The Paradox made waves online. Their debut video went viral, and within a month of creating their social media presence, they had amassed over 100k followers, with the numbers continuing to climb. Their setlist includes iconic covers like “Basket Case” by Green Day and “Linoleum” by NOFX, but it’s their original music that truly sets them apart.
The Paradox’s singles, “Kaitlyn,” “Imani,” and “Ms. Lauren,” all penned by lead vocalist Eric Dangerfield, have generated immense anticipation, with fans eagerly demanding releases. Each performance by The Paradox is electrifying, filling venues with incredible energy that gets everyone moving.
Individually, each member is a force of musical talent, but together, they create an explosion of pure musical brilliance that is nothing short of extraordinary.
