Description
Parachute, live in concert! Parachute is a pop rock band from Charlottesville, Virginia. The members graduated from college in May 2008 and since then have been touring and promoting their debut album Losing Sleep full-time. Fly Magazine defines Parachute's sound as "blue-eyed soul, adult pop, Maroon 5-style faux-funk: it's the Goldilocks of pop-rock, neither too hot nor too cold." Originally named "Sparky's Flaw", the band changed its name from to "Parachute" in 2008. Since their graduation, Parachute has been touring with artists such as O.A.R., Switchfoot, Duffy, Matt Nathanson and Jon McLaughlin. Their single "She is Love" was used on Nivea's national skincare TV commercial. As part of the campaign, Parachute shared the Nivea Countdown Stage with the Jonas Brothers and Taylor Swift in front of over one million people in Time's Square. Parachute's debut album Losing Sleep became available in stores and online on May 19, 2009. Primarily produced by John Shanks, Losing Sleep highlights unabashed emotional affairs. On May 12, "Losing Sleep" was released exclusively on iTunes, including an additional bonus track, "Strange World". The second single off of the album, "Under Control", was also highlighted as the Free iTunes Single of the Week.
