Cruel Youth is a band fronted by Teddy Sinclair, who previously recorded two solo albums under the name Natalia Kills.
During that year they began to experiment with music, ultimately forming the band Cruel Youth.
Paro also helped Sinclair and Moon write "I Don't Love You", a track from Cruel Youth's debut extended play (EP) +30mg.
In September 2016, Cruel Youth announced they would be joining Kiiara for a US tour beginning in Los Angeles, and finishing in New York City.
In 2023, the band released the non-album single "Sunny", a cover of the same-titled song by Bobby Hebb.
