Biography
Welcome!
A little about us,
Since their debut, March into Paris has been making a huge impact on the indie rock scene. As one of Northern California's most critically acclaimed bands, they regularly blow audiences away with their energetic, some say manic live performances. MiP consists of charismatic powerhouse lead vocalist, Jennifer Cameron, bassist Eric Davis, guitarists Randy Medeiros, Kevin McCarty and drummer Kris Ayala.
As a Post-Alternative rock band, March into Paris music pulls from many genres to create their ambient, melodic yet aggressive sound. While being compared to some of their influences ( Patti Smith, Sonic Youth, Scarling, A.F.I. ), MiP strives to develop their own unique sonic character of lush verse styles, huge booming choruses and screaming guitar solos.
Just as the City of Lights draws artists of all stripes who come to fulfill their dreams and be who they are, March Into Paris finds itself pushing the boundaries of their art and individual lives. As Eric says, “To march is to stride boldly towards your dreams and make them a reality with triumph in your heart, even if you only have crumbs in your pockets.”MiP works dilligently to embodie a DIY ethos, releasing 2 E.P.'s, 3 singles while booking and playing hundreds of live performances and building a global fan base. To them, indie isn't something you claim to be, it's something you have to prove through years of blood, sweat and tears.
““No Response (Make My Day)” has March Into Paris traipse into the domain of acts like Coheed and Cambria; I feel that the vocals here have even more of a dynamism than Claudio’s while the band seems to have a more laser focus than anything that was present on “In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3”. March Into Paris is an act that comes forth tremendously in a studio format, and I have a good feeling in my gut that they would absolutely be able to tear the house down at whatever live shows that they play.”
-James McQuiston - NeuFutur Magazine
“March Into Paris make the beginning of their “Beautiful Chaos” into an instrument-heavy affair that benefits through the inclusion of a strong female set of vocals. There is not an easy way to compare the band to existing music; there is a fury present to the previously-mentioned vocals that is only matched by the splashing drums and sick guitar lines.”
-James McQuiston - NeuFutur Magazine
“Brilliant and Energetic!”
Fringe Magazine (Sacramento)
“March into Paris have been working hard to win over fans the old fashion way, by playing great live. Their debut ep titled "Shield the Dilemma" is sure to tickle the fancy of those who can appreciate delay-ridden, space rock chalk full of haunting melodies. It niether bores, nor disapoints.”
Submerge Magazine (Sacramento)
““Along for the Ride” shows the band at their closest to jumping into truly epic, booming, smart, hard rock songwriting”
