PARIS WELLS “KEEP IT” ALBUM RELEASE
(AND INAUGURAL ANNUAL “KEEP IT DAY”)


Historically, July 19th has never really had much to brag about. It's a holiday in Burma, Ian Botham played his last game of first class cricket on July 19th and Apollo 11 went into orbit. Now, finally something noteworthy – the long-awaited release of wunderkind Paris Wells' debut album, Keep It.

Every now and again an artist like Melbourne's own Paris Wells comes along seemingly just to make life hard for people who have to pigeon-hole things for a living. Even MySpace's three category fool-proof plan misses the mark by about ten categories on this one. We're talking about a girl whose influences range from NWA to Led Zeppelin; who built up an incredible street-level buzz throughout Melbourne's underground circuit and then took a break to jet off around the country to support Justin Timberlake; who has the style and grace of Jackie Onassis with the attitude of Keith Richards. This girl is Oxford and Webster's worst nightmare, but she's going to become your eardrum's best friend.

In late '07, Paris swung the spotlight onto herself through the release of her debut EP, Mum Hasn't Slept Yet, and suddenly St. Jerome's favourite resident became a household name amongst the in-crowd at bars across the country. Off the back of this notoriety, Paris hit the road and mesmerised crowds at Meredith Music Festival, Big Day Out, Falls Festival and Sydney Festival with a voice that could turn gay men straight and straight men insane.

Keep It's suggestive and infectious first single, Dat Du Dat, has taken radio hostage over the past couple of months and, in true Paris Wells' style, has crossed boundaries from ultra-hip community stations to the country's largest commercial networks. The album, produced by True Live's RHyNo, is destined for the same fate – accessible, catchy songs infused with a jaded swagger that will kick you in the throat and make you love it.

And – thanks to Paris Wells, you'll now have something to celebrate on July 19th each year. Our public holiday application is currently pending.

“This is a good in your face introduction,” Paris says. “I have a lot more to me though. I don’t want to show all my cards just yet.”

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now,
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.
But, if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it badly,
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you'll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
Lord help me, I can't change.

Hey Paris, I'm a huge fan of yours! Just wanted to let you know I've just released my debut EP on iTunes called 'The Life Raft' produced by Dave Symes. And the title track made it to #1 on Triple J unearthed! I would be honored if you would take the time to check it out. And if you're ever looking for a support act, please think of me! All the best for your continued success! Kate x
