So who are the Paperboys? A Canadian based
band that describe their unique brand of
music as follows;
“Mexican Son Jarocho mixed in with Irish Jigs
and Reels and a good dose of Country and
Bluegrass. It has healthy servings of Ska, Soca
and African Highlife and we've been known to
throw in a little White Boy Reggae. Of course it
also has strains of Soul, Pop and Funk
although we are by no means a funk band. It is
mostly acoustic although we also like electric
guitars.
It is singer-songwriter based but not the
coffee house variety. It is definitely FOLK
music, but not in the Kumbaya style. It has a
deep respect and appreciation for tradition
(Bluegrass, Old Time, Celtic) but it's by no means Traditional.
It rocks incredibly hard and is extremely
danceable, but that is not to say it can't be
mellow and slow and beautiful. It can be heart
breaking, but also joyous. It is World Roots
Music. It's POP music. It is GOOD music.
It has a tendency to connect people and means
a lot to many folks the world over, and for that
we are very grateful. It is the only multicultural,
multi-ethnic, multi-generational,
multi-lingual, multi-instrumental, genre
bending, co-ed band you will hear today!!”
