Wide Awake, the forthcoming album from PARACHUTE embodies the spirit and core passion of the band’s characteristic pop-rock sound and takes it to another level. Newly pared down from a five-piece to a trio - Will Anderson (lead vocals, songwriter, guitar), Johnny Stubblefield (drums), and Christopher "Kit” French (saxophone, keyboards) forge that sensibility in part by shaking off all creative inhibitions. "We felt like we had no limitations to chase this sound that the three of us have wanted to build for so long,” says Anderson. "It was as if we were woken up from some sort of slumber, revitalized and rejuvenated with this new awareness of who we are as a band. Reuniting with producer John Fields (who was at the helm with 2011’s The Way It Was and their 2009 debut Losing Sleep), the 12 tracks on Wide Awake spotlight the band’s keen sense of songcraft coupled with their catchy melodies.
