Paper St.

Hailing from Erie, Pennsylvania, Paper St is a four-piece hard rock act formed in September of 2001. Since then the band has become one of the most popular acts on the regional music scene. The buzz started with their 2002 independent release, “Here to Stay”. With its rude distorted guitar riffs and sweet sounding acoustics the album soon became a must-have among fans from all over the area. Their sophomore release "Music for the Desperate" was recorded by Indy rock producer Chris Mara in Nashville, Tennessee. "Music for the Desperate" was released in 2003 and was successfully added to over 250 radio stations across the United States.Due to their expanding fan base, the band continues to be promoted through sponsorship with Labatts Blue of Labatts, USA. They have shared the stage with the region’s best bands and have also been fortunate enough to play on the same stage and frequent some of the same venues as Bruce Springsteen, Seether, SR-71, Evanescence, The Clarks, Dope, Mushroomhead, Queens of the Stone Age, Donnie Iris, Hinder and Faktion.Paper St started pre-production in the fall of 2004 working again with Chris Mara for a future full-length album. In November 2005 and February 2006 Paper St worked with engineer Doug White of Watchmen Studios in New York to produce their 3rd album, “Whiskey & Push-Ups”. “Whiskey & Push-Ups” was released in October 2006 and these songs can currently be heard on the Internet via My Space, Pure Volume, and their official website www.paperstlive.com. The new material shows that this band is not only ready to take things to the next level, but that they are already there.
