ParentAtTheDisco 26 Report post Posted August 25, 2013 I don't know if we'll ever get them here in the US, but I really like the West Wales duo Paper Aeroplanes. The singer Sarah Howells has an amazing lyrical voice, and the songs are just enchanging. A couple of songs off their most recent album: Red Rover: http://youtu.be/bArFOaRYtCQ Singing To Elvis: And from their previous album... The Days We Made: (I was surpised not to find any recommendations about them already here, since I think someone from the PFC originally turned me onto them.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salinas 23 Report post Posted August 27, 2013 I love them, though I'm only aware of "The Day We Ran Into The Sea" I've had twitter conversations with Sarah Howells before. She seems like a lovely lady. I need to add "Little Letters" to my album collection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chriss 10,903 Report post Posted August 28, 2013 Seeing this just made my day. The indie label I used to work at, OK! Good Records, released their album The Day We Ran Into The Sea here a few years ago! I really wish we could've done more for them because the four of us working there loved them! I don't work at the label anymore, and I don't think Paper Aeroplanes works with them either (the label's loss, really), but I still keep up with their music. Sarah and Rich are incredibly nice people, and their music is beautiful. I think they've played a grand total of three shows in the US - back in November of 2010. Two in New York and one in New Jersey at Mexicali Live, that I went to. If they came back, I'd be there in a heartbeat. This ones my favorite... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's great to hear that one of your favourite bands are lovely people too. Did you manage to keep in contact with them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
