My Friends, the new album from Charlottetown indie-rockers Paper Lions is set for release on August 20, 2013 via the band’s own label imprint, Fountain Pop Records.
The 10-song collection captures a Polaroid of Prince Edward Island
twenty-some years ago. Stories of love and pain, childish fights, best
friends, beaches and forts; they evoke the melancholia of youth,
remembered by someone not very far from it. Check out the trailer for
the new album here: http://www.youtube.com/
Paper Lions have traveled the world on the strength of their last EP At Long Creek (2012) and debut album, Trophies (2010). Having
built their reputation on sunny pop gems, the band’s nuanced song
writing also has its darker clouds. Their tightly crafted, high-energy
live show is not to be missed. As outlined below, the band will play
select Canadian and U.S. shows this summer including a stop at NXNE in
Toronto and two shows in New York City this June.
My Friends, was recorded with acclaimed Canadian indie-rock producer Howard Redekopp (Tegan and Sara, The New Pornographers, Mother Mother)
in Vancouver. Equally influenced by the clear-voiced harmonies of the
Beach Boys and the clanging guitars of modern rock, at the heart of the
band are long standing friendships and vibrant pop songs based on the
sandy shores of their remote island province.
