Paradise Guerrilla is a Brazilian pop music band formed in Rio de Janeiro[1] in 2022. The current lineup consists of Starlight, U.F.O., and Frankstation.[2]

Marked by the use of alien-referenced costumes by two members and the pop presence of its frontwoman, the band draws strong influences from sci-fi, the gaming universe, and comic book culture in its videos and performances.[3] Its pop sound blends electronic elements with the use of analog instruments such as Moog synthesizers and drum machines,[4][5] bass and guitar. Its compositions deal with themes such as extraterrestrial life and human relationships.[6]

Their debut single "Another Galaxy" was among the 50 most played songs on Brazilian radio in 2022,[6] and its music video was nominated in two categories at the 2022 Music Video Festival Awards.[7]

In 2023 the band announces their first album, "I Wanna Make A Hole In The Sky",[8] accompanied by a trilogy of music videos that were recorded within the band's new game, coinciding with their performance in the first edition of The Town Festival.[9]
