History

Fight Paris was formed in 2003 after Jason Krutzky (drums), Kevin Phillips (vocals), and Neil Warren (guitar), Champ Champagne (bass,vocals), and Matt Tanner(guitar) were already playing under the moniker Chronic MD. [cite web| title = Fight Paris| url = http://www.napster.com/view/artist/index.html?id=12015563| accessdate = 2006-11-08] They changed their name and decided to move to a town with a better music scene, and picked up and moved to Sacramento, California. There, they recorded their music and helmed their "southern rock" sound for six months. after recording their record, they moved back to Atlanta to release it on their own, but were offered a deal with Trustkill Records. [cite web| title = Fight Paris| url = http://www.napster.com/view/artist/index.html?id=12015563| accessdate = 2006-11-08] With their new freedom under the current label, they produced their first album, "Paradise, Found", featuring the single "Complete Heat".
