Paper Route

This band is awesome . What can I say they hail from Nashville . The home of country music . ;) But they sound nothing like country . There music is Indie Electronic with a tinge of alternative vibe . As you can probably tell I really like this style of music .

Anyway the band consist of numerous artists . With the main man being Chad Howat . Who had the brillant idea to collaborate with other muso's .(Other band members can be found on their myspace ) . Paper Route released a EP last year . Welcomed with a huge response the record sold out within a few months . I know this because I went to purchase a copy and yes SOLD OUT appeared . Their latest EP released nation wide today " 29th of August" can be purchased in stores some include www.amazon.com , Borders and Virgin . For the full list visit their myspace again and go to their blog entry for more information .

The reason why I am so excited about this band is because I know they will be around producing great music for a long time . The progrssion of each song is amazing . As you sit transfixed into his Ben Gibbard style voice . I guess I shouldn' t compare him . But the vocals are amazing on all songs . My favourite is Only Words . Which incorparates both female and Male vox . Another favourite is Keep Holding On . Which is a beautiful ballad style song . Which sounds a little like Martha Wainright . I get the chills everytime I listen .

Words can not really describe the sounds produced by this band . So please head over to their pages and listen and buy their new record . It will be worth every dollar . I promise .
