PARADOX, A powerful Alternative Rock outfit, formed in Cork Ireland, in the spring of 1996. Having played the local circuit, establishing a sturdy fanbase, and fine tuning their sound, Paradox venture to the US where a Recording contract with a Los Angeles based Independent label, was secured. Having recorded a truly original 12 - track album, entitled 'Circle of Growth', Paradox returned to Ireland, to make preparations for it's imminent release, playing eclectic live shows, both in Ireland and the US, in turn increasing their fanbase, and launching their self-created website, just mere examples of the bands own hard work, enthusiasm and dedication.

Paradox are constantly in the media's eye, by means of International airplay, Radio interviews, Newspaper coverage, Internet coverage and Independent television broadcasts, with their debut video for the single 'Infinite', to their latest single 'Lame and Languid', from the 'Sacred' EP. Paradox have been described by Critics, Magazines, Newspapers, and faithful fans from the shows as being one of the tightest bands in their class, and with every show they perform, increasing their ever growing fanbase.

Paradox are a combination of three unique individuals, with distinctive musical backgrounds, each member contributing their own personal style, taking you on a musical journey, filled with passion, truth and expression. Brothers Pete & Mike Mac are solely responsible for all the performances on both 'Circle of Growth' and 'Sacred'. Pete is responsible for all Guitar work, Bass and Vocals, on both albums, while Mike perfoms all Percussion, Drums, Backing Vocals, with the addition of Keyboards and Piano on the 'Sacred' . They also participate on all production aspects of both albums.

Paradox have now progressed, both musically and personally to a new level of expression, veering away from their previous punk rock/grunge sound of ‘Circle of Growth’, to a more melodic Alternative sound, that the band have been thriving to achieve since their creation. This sound is captured on their second release, entitled ‘Sacred’.

Paradox continue to work on a full time professional level, in a bid to ensure they reach their full potential.
