“On “Nyquil,” the new single from Practically Paradise, listeners are pulled into a world where difficult times are made worse with bad decisions. The track details the end of a relationship and the substances used to make the pain dissipates. It’s a story as old as time, yet the delivery here makes everything feel new. Like re-opening a wound that you’d rather forget, “Nyquil” Addresses all the things that we choose to overlook because we believe temporary numbness to be better than self-care. It’s a reminder that we can never escape ourselves, no matter how hard we may try, and it’s one of the catchiest songs I’ve heard all year.”
“South Carolina’s newest budding pop-rock brother duo Practically Paradise is excited to release their second single and visual “Nyquil”. Following their debut single “On Read”, “Nyquil” shows vocalist Steven Bolin and drummer Reed Bolin stumbling through a drug-addled haze, getting lost in addiction as Steven’s relationship crumbles around him. Although the single and visual are primarily centred around a dismal topic, Practically Paradise use poppy guitars and clean flowing vocals to convey a feeling of hope and reminder that every battle can be temporary if you allow yourself to ask for help.”

Substream Magazine called the single one of the ‘catchiest songs” of the year.’”
“Their debut single “On Read” takes off with a pop-rock guitar intro with a style that sounds straight from Nashville, and builds up into a story of “ghosting,” an annoyingly relatable sentiment for anyone in today’s dating scene, but it’s much more than what can be told on a relationship level..”
“From the Nashville-esque rhythmic influences of The Band Camino comes South Carolina’s newest budding pop rock band Practically Paradise. Their brand new debut single and visual “On Read”, out December 4th, provides a critical first-person look at the way modern dating has changed as social media continues expanding into all aspects of life. Albeit an infuriating topic for anyone who’s experienced the communication failure known as “ghosting”, Practically Paradise uses clean production, neon colors, and cheerful synth to create a playful video.”
