Original members Kyle Even and David Schmitt started the project in 2007, they didn't anticipate that their “just for fun” intent would explode into an internationally sought-after duo within just a couple of years. The story of Breathe Carolina is a modern day music fairytale, about two friends who recorded tracks on Mac program GarageBand at home in Denver, Colorado, put them on to MySpace and rapidly gained a huge online following.
The duo's self-released debut EP Gossip hit iTunes in 2007, and after a phenomenal response, they released their debut album "It’s Classy, Not Classic" in 2008. The album entered the Billboard Top 200 at #186. Their genre-clashing blend of crowd-pleasing pop, rock and electronica was a hit, and no longer confined to the bedroom – Breathe Carolina were a global force ready to be heard.
After signing with Fearless Records in 2009, their album Hello Fascination took their music to a bigger, brighter and more blistering dimension. Recorded with the stellar production team of Mike Green (Paramore, The Higher, Set Your Goals) and Matt Squire (Taking Back Sunday, 3OH!3, Panic At The Disco), their sound became re-defined with the addition of live instruments and hooky pop choruses. The album debuted at #43 on the Billboard Top 200, at #5 on the Independent Chart and #2 on the Electronic Chart. The title track “Hello Fascination” was featured on MTV’s The City and received placement on NBC’s Sunday Night Football. It even became the featured track on NBC’s The Jay Leno Show promos.
The duo followed up their second UK headline tour of the year with a whole summer on Vans Warped Tour 2010, followed by a direct support slot to Mayday Parade on the Fearless Friends Tour in Fall 2010.
2011 has been quite the year for the band, as "Blackout"'s steady ascension up the Top 40 single chart, embraced by fans across the nation as their new party anthem, has made them one of the only independent acts taking on the pop goliaths at Top 40. 'Hell Is What You Make It' debuted at #2 on the Billboard Electronic Chart, with The NY Times calling the album "one of the best pure pop albums of the year". A performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, main playlist rotation across all MTV networks for video "Blackout" and an Artist Of The Week slot on MTV's PUSH program fueled the genre-blending duo's success story.
Starting out in a bedroom in the suburbs of the Mile High City, Breathe Carolina was one of the first bands to start making waves via social networks. They truly came into their own on Fearless Records-released sophomore full-length Hello Fascination. A step to a brave next level, the album entered the Billboard Top 200 at #43, and went on to sell over 60,000 copies in the U.S. alone. Their juxtaposition of hardcore guts and pop glory found a happy niche between both rock and pop fans, the album's title track landing placements on the promos for NBC's Jay Leno Show, 30 Rock and Monday Night Football, MTV's The Hills and The City.
With national radio dates with fellow Top 40 acts including Flo-Rida, Selena Gomez, Kreayshawn, Hot Chelle Rae, Cobra Starship and The Fray sees the band ending 2011 on an all time high.

Breathe Carolina Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hope you know that this won't stop
(god damn, just another heartbreak)
-CHORUS-
I swear to god I won't stop until your shakin
-trust me baby you know I want you to-
And let me slide into you please baby
If you want it let me bring it, let me sneak into your house tonight
-breathe in-
And I'm coming to these terms that my heart won't beat anymore
-I just can't get it-
Sing along sing if you want, ten more seconds till we're through the door.
And it's a dance party everyone's looking for, been drinkin tonight and I won't stop, when it's a quarter to four daylight is breakin
-CHORUS-
I'll call you in the morning if you think it's right
Is it over? is it over...
It was a dance party, everyone looked just right, I played you all night, would you believe me if I told you that I want you, and everyday I felt this way? would you take me to the place you know the one that leaves me all alone... wait right here just for a minute we'll talk a little just about it
I will take it slow, I won't let you go.
-CHORUS-
The lyrics of Breathe Carolina's song The Birds and The Bees are about a guy who is hoping to have a night of intimacy with a girl he likes. He promises that he won't stop until she is shakin', and he asks for her permission to sneak into her house that night. The chorus of the song is a repetition of his promise to make the girl tremble with pleasure and "slide into" her. He adds that he also wants her to scream because that is an indication that he is doing a good job. He then proceeds to talk about the party where he met the girl and how he played her all night. He asks her if she feels the same way he does about her and promises that he won't let her go.
The song's lyrics may seem explicit, but they reflect the thoughts and feelings of many young people today. The song may be seen as a representation of the sexual liberation of young people, and how they see sex as an essential part of life. The lyrics may be seen as a way of validating sexual desires, and expressing them in a non-judgmental way. However, it is important to note that consent is a crucial element of any sexual encounter, and both parties must agree to the terms before engaging in sexual activities.

I'll never get over this band.
@_xXscene_genre_elitistXx_
bands are groups of musicians that perform together. neither david or kyle were/are musicians.
@rusted01
@The Scene Time Continuum How were they not musicians? Are singers and electronic musicians not musicians? lol
@_xXscene_genre_elitistXx_
@@rusted4766 anyone can sing or produce instrumentals. if you're not good at either of those things (neither of them can sing/scream well and the instrumentals are basic add generic [with a couple exceptions] scenepop+edm), then you don't really qualify. lol.
@rusted01
@The Scene Time Continuum Firstly, being good/proficient isn't a prerequisite to being a musician. Ever heard of The Shaggs?
Second, if u don't like this band then why are u even here?
@_xXscene_genre_elitistXx_
@@rusted4766 when did i say i didn't like BC? i can still enjoy the music without being willing to respect them as musicians.
