   About Paper Bird
..

For this banner...

...copy/paste this code:

Our new EP, A Sky Underground, and our full length album, Anything Nameless and Joymaking are both available at these fantastic local retailers:


Twist and Shout (East Colfax, Denver, CO)
Wax Trax (13th and Washington, Denver, CO)
Albums on the Hill (Boulder, CO)
Bart's CD Cellar (Pearl Street mall, Boulder, CO)

Don't take our word for it...


"Paper Bird blend a trio of fetching female vocalists, two of whom are sisters, with guitar, banjo, trumpet, trombone, and stand-up bass. Their slightly unorthodox configuration gives them the freedom to blend tried-and-true Americana with gorgeous harmonies that defy categorization." -Donnybrook Writing Academy


"The key to Paper Bird's continued greatness is in the band's willingness to get a little weird sometimes. The further out Paper Bird goes both lyrically (castles, horses, and queen's daughters show up on "Dead As A Dead Man's Bones") and musically (clustered harmonies and hilarious trumpet-trombone battles on the same song), the more interesting the results will be. The record hints at what's to come and plays out at a perfect length, meaning the EP feels like it's over way too soon. It's as good a five-song collection of left-field folk music as has likely ever played on any pair of speakers in—as they sing in the jubilant finale, "Colorado"—our mother@$^' state." - Patrick Lee, Review of 'A Sky Underground' for Onion Decider


"For their sound is the song of a million middle century charms playing as one grand symphony. Their sound is black and white twentieth century America at its best. It is the world smiling. It is the world singing." -Jonathon Bitz, Syntax Magazine.

"They make audiences feel love, excitement, and passion. A show not to be missed, a band that must be heard: Paper Bird is one of a kind." -tahoe.com

"With guitar, banjo, and trombone backing joyous harmonies, the folk orchestra cuts softly but surely through indie-rock coolness. Paper Bird's debut CD Anything Nameless and Joymaking, came out last year, and it deftly captures the warmth and wonder of the band's stage presence." -The Onion A.V. Club

"...onstage the members of Paper Bird don’t just look like they get along or play well together, they look like they love each other. They look like they’re having a great time. When they take the stage, the love spreads through the crowd like a beautiful case of pinkeye, and unless you’re the coldest bastard since Leona Helmsley, you will be infected. Symptoms include giggling, Snoopy dancing, and stranger-hugging." -Jef Otte, The UCD Advocate

"In the midst of mainstream bands hot off the production line, we find Paper Bird, a musical manifestation of the roots and philosophy that Coloradans share." -Josie Dembiczac, The Boulder Weekly
