Sons of Paradise

Sons of Paradise is a reggae-rock band proudly hailing from Raleigh, North Carolina. Founded by high school friends Matt McClanahan (lead vocals/rhythm guitar), Jordan Gee (keyboards), Sons of Paradise has risen to playing headlining venues across the country as well as supporting artists such as  The Elovaters, Tropidelic, Bumpin Uglies, Inner Circle, Beres Hammond, and many more.  Additionally Sons of Paradise has delighted fans at festivals including Reggae Rise Up Vegas and Reggae Rise Up Florida. Joined in 2023 by Joe Conroy (lead guitar) and Storm Adams (drums), and in 2024-2025 by Matt Corey (sax) and Donny Sill (bass), Sons of Paradise has its best lineup yet.  Sons of Paradise's sound is hard to confine to one genre. An eclectic blend of powerful lyricism with playful hooks, elements of driving yet smooth lead guitar, complemented by melodic keyboard and organ, Sons of Paradise's songs continue to push the boundaries of what might be considered "strictly reggae." However dont be fooled, the reggae style in Sons of Paradise comes through beautifully with roots style drum and bass mixed with traditional reggae guitar and keyboard, creating well balanced crave worthy songs that you'll want to listen to over and over again.
