| What do human aspirations and animals with beaks
and wings have in common? According to Modern Paranoia and their
catchy single "I'm a Bird", the musical hypothesis is about the will of
humanity to exceed in what we do. |
| |
| What do you mean, "you're a bird"?!? |
| |
| It is an expression that explores everyone's capacity to exceed
in whatever they are doing while being humble, hence "all from my
knees". |
| |
| How did music become a substantial part of your lives? |
| |
| Each of us has the same story in that we all have loved and
studied music all of our lives. Each of us contribute to writing and we
all can play multiple instruments. Most of us were introduced to music
in one form or another through one of our parents and, of course, the
obligatory choir. |
| |
| How was the band formed? Oddly enough through a friend, our
drummer, Tanner, had a chance to put together a show to do a gig at an
event at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah. We pieced together a band
and had about ten days to rehearse. It went well enough so we decided to
hang together and try to continue. That was two years ago. |

| If you had to describe your music in short poem of ten words or
less, what could it potentially sound like? |
| |
| Modern Paranoia gonna destroya with alt Rock without any
stock |
| |
| To attract more organic types, would the melody from "I'm a
Bird" fit a possible variant called "I'm a Goat"? |
| |
| We all are the goat from time to time so it could fit. |
