About Me

BIOGRAPHY OF MARCH INTO PARIS
Driven by their pure passion and love for music, the 5 members of March Into Paris are said to be a breath of fresh air to the Indie Rock Music scene. March Into Paris began with two musicians and best friends, guitar team Randy Medeiros and Eric Davis, joining to form an energetic and diverse sound with Kevin McCarty (bass) and Kris Ayala (drums). Now led by Jennifer Valdez, a brilliant and ambitious musician, singer/songwriter, this close nit group have merged five different musical backgrounds to create one powerhouse band.
March Into Paris has been performing a slew of shows up and down California. From the Boardwalk in Sacramento, to the Voodoo Lounge in San Jose, MIP has performed in the core of Sacramento, Concord, San Jose, San Rafael, San Francisco, and now with their first EP release titled “Shield the Dilemma”, they have an even longer list of venues requesting a taste of their beautiful chaos.
Currently known around Sacramento as the upcoming band in the Indie Rock scene, March Into Paris has branched out and gained Hard Rock, and Punk music fans in Concord, CA. They are now working with Label 51/50, a local/underground music supporter also known as the “good guys” trying to help dedicated bands get the recognition they deserve. Although the Label’s main musical attraction magnifies Hard Rock and Punk, after their first performance at a Label 51/50 showcase, MIP exceeded the label owners expectations and gained respect and camaraderie from the Label bands despite their different genre.
The band’s latest accomplishments have been running up a tab of growing fans from all different musical preferences. Fringe Magazine recently dedicated March Into Paris as the number 2 band to know and featured their bio and review in their June 2008 edition. They have also been invited to perform at the Rock the Future Music Festival in Eugene, Oregon in August 2008, as well as the Left Coast Live Music Festival in San Jose, CA 2008.
Said by Fans to deliver shocking and exciting performances, March Into Paris is the band to see LIVE. Even fellow Label 51/50 band Hide The Body says, “Thank you for March Into Paris. My musical pallet is cleansed, they're amazing!” So don’t miss out on performances from this upcoming band, and find out for yourself how March Into Paris can satisfy your musical craving.
MIP’s Most Commonly Asked Question:
“What does the name March Into Paris mean?”
MIP Answers:
The world’s greatest cities are more than just overly packed urban dwellings. They also represent the greatest of human ideals and achievement. Places where you are free to fulfill your dreams, be who you are, explore and push the boundaries of art, life and self. But one city above all the others shine as the brightest beacon of all these ideals. 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.

a bit of truth

The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side. - Hunter S. Thompson
