BIOGRAPHY

Vaughn Paradise is a multidisciplinary creator whose work bridges music, literature, and healing. As a touring musician, licensed mental health therapist, and published fantasy author, he thrives at the intersection of art and human experience. Under the project Paradise Misplaced, Vaughn fuses his diverse worlds into immersive performances that combine fantastical storytelling, intricate choreography, and a soundscape as dynamic as it is unrelenting.

His music draws inspiration from the intensity of hardcore, the experimental energy of hyperpop, and the lyrical flow of hip-hop, creating a genre-bending style that is uniquely his own. Audiences and critics alike have compared Paradise Misplaced to the work of Hollywood Undead, Ashnikko, La Dispute, and Falling in Reverse—yet Vaughn’s approach remains distinctly personal, rooted in his lived experiences and artistic vision.
