Cocozzella was part of The Autobiography, but parted ways with them for unknown reasons. Spending time away from his old band, he has created Kill Paradise, along with two other side projects: The Midas Well and The Broadway.
The duo's roots can be traced back to the same Denver music scene that catapulted 3OH!3 and Breathe Carolina from local heroes to two of the hottest bands in the nation. Nick Cocozzella began his obsession at an early age learning to play piano at the age of five and teaching himself to play guitar, drums, violin, and harmonica. His passion for music quickly became his driving force.
Armed with a laptop and his own musical devices, Cocozzella began writing a series of pop songs which he posted online to share with friends and family under the moniker Kill Paradise. The songs quickly spread virally with Kill Paradise’s social networks registering an insane amount of plays on sites like MySpace, Facebook and YouTube. From there Kill Paradise began touring the country to fans that knew every word to the group’s songs.
The buzz that Kill Paradise had created quickly caught the ear of California based BreakSilence Recordings, who signed the group for the release of their national debut “The Second Effect”.

Kill Paradise Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is a special night for the both of us cause we're getting close
Baby I could love you forever; baby I could love you forever
And I won't ever let you go, when we drop,
Cause I'm spittin and I love you cause you're hot
And I'll never ever leave you
Cause I swear to God I love you
Don't fly away, don't fly too high.
I met a guy, he asked, how was my day?
I said my day, my day was okay because
I saw Katie A and Katie be today
Working them high heels
And they working them scraped heels
Oh yeah!
I don't know what to do,
With the both of you
Cause you're looking so pretty tonight and
Baby, baby I just might
Take you for a ride tonight
Now come on girl it's time to get crazy
I'm not the one who's lazy baby
Look at you move your fancy feet
Dancing so proudly, man that's my biggest fantasy.
I love you just so much
Just the way you are and your special touch
Dancing around like you like to mush
It's the mosh pit baby, I'm not trying to talk. Hush hush
Baby baby darling here's to me and you tonight
No one's watching me, so get crazy
So time to get it right
Because I love you
And you know baby I love you
So it doesn't matter if you're scared of what your names is
You know you cannot dance
Get your pants on baby get that prance on
Everybody loves the way you get your dance on
I could love you if you shake your shoulders
Get your pants on baby
Katie and I are flies tonight
Don't fly away, don't fly too high.

The song "Katie and I" by Kill Paradise is an upbeat, party song that describes the singer's night out with two women named Katie. The singer is clearly smitten with one or both of the Katies, as he repeatedly professes his love for them and insists that he will never let them go. He also seems to be having a great time dancing with them in the mosh pit, celebrating their beauty and their ability to move their "fancy feet".
The song's lyrics are simple and repetitive, with the chorus consisting of the repeated phrase, "Katie and I are flies tonight". This line seems to suggest that the singer and the Katies are carefree and enjoying themselves, like flies buzzing around the room. At the same time, there is a sense of fleetingness and impermanence to the night, as if they might fly away at any moment.
Overall, "Katie and I" is a fun, lighthearted song that celebrates the joy of dancing and partying with friends. It's clear that the Katies hold a special place in the singer's heart, and in some ways, the song feels like a tribute to their beauty and their ability to make him feel alive.
