Description:
Pardigras is a six-piece electro-pop band from Fredonia, New York. They have released an EP, entitled Twist and Shake, self recorded and produced Chris Grabar and Dillon Mealey. Originally the band consisted of just the two members, Dillon Mealey (lead vocals) and Chris Grabar (rhythm guitar/ MC), but as they began to play live shows, added the members Brian Paniknowski (drums/ back up vocals), Christian Carlson (lead guitar), Tyler Gold (synthesizer) and Jeff Alvarado (bass). Pardigras can be compared to bands like Metro Station with more punch, 3Oh!3 with more poignant and melodic lyrics or Cobra Starship with more soul. The band is currently projected to release their first full length album, We Prey Like Lions, by the beginning of Jan, 2011. The group has already gone on tour, played with super-groups Brand New and Indie rock favorite Rookie of the Year, among other artists.The band has also received press from seventeen magazine, college newspaper The Leader, been spun on KISS FM, had numerous radio interviews and signed with Just Seven Entertainment Group. The band has also been selected for the National Association for Campus Activities Main Stage Showcase in February.


Band Members:
There are certain emotions that are driven from our bodies through bright lights, late nights and pulsing beats. Those emotions punctuate our freedom from reality. To encapsulate a break from reality and put audience members in a different state of mind is something that the new electro-pop band Pardigras knows how to do on a nightly basis. Only being together for a little over a year, the band Pardigras has a refined sound which moves its dedicated fan base to come out to every show with comfortable shoes and an electricity to dance. The band is motivated through dreams of sharing these notions with the world. "Though it might be easy to assume that these Pardigras "dreams' are laden with fantasies of stardom and celebrity, these dudes have more pressing items on their agenda...like putting on a killer live show for their fans. Ask any female Pardigras groupie and they'll tell you that you'll never leave a PG show with your hair in tact or your makeup still perfectly applied."- Jenna Rubenstein, Seventeen Magazine. The band has redefined electro- pop rock as something with tangibility, the ability to connect across genres and demographics and is driven by real, true inspiration.
