THE PAPER KITES IN CONCERT:
Indie folk group the Paper Kites are winning new fans across the globe with their soaring melodies and dreamy guitar riffs. Whether they're calmly singing fan favorites like “A Maker of My Time” or new tracks like “St. Clarity” from 2013’s States, the Paper Kites fuse lush harmonies with intricate banjo licks and strong percussion at their intimate live shows. The band has toured around the world and continues to delight fans with their incredible musicianship and beautiful tunes on tour.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Hailing from Melbourne, the Paper Kites formed in 2009 by high school friends Sam Bentley and Christina Lacey. After performing locally, the duo expanded their band into a five-piece and began to play festivals. Over the next few years the Paper Kites released three EPs that featured popular tracks like “Bloom” and “Featherstone”, earning the band mainstream media attention for their warm harmonies and strong folk sound. They embarked on several supporting tours alongside Boy & Bear, Bombay Bicycle Club, and Passenger and continued to grow their fanbase around the world. The release of the band’s highly acclaimed 2013 debut LP States brought widespread critical praise and launched a string of sold-out headlining shows around their native Australia. A promising new talent, the Paper Kites show no signs of slowing down as they continue to deliver their folk-filled tunes to eager fans on their thrilling tours.

by andaqu on 11/16/13Mercury Lounge - New YorkThe Paper Kites were incredible. The venue was intimate so we were really close. They were so talented an sounded absolutely amazing live. It rare that a band sounds so amazing live, I wish I could have a recording of the live show, the leader singer Sam's voice was so raw and pure and heart warming. Definitely an amazing beautiful show, I highly recommend everyone going to see this band. Not to mention they are completely humble and cool and hung out with the crowd after the show. Very impressive stuff paper kites, you were amazing.

by markesellus on 11/12/13Brighton Music Hall - BostonBrighton Music Hall was a great small venue to see the paper kites in. We even got to meet up with them afterwards and take pictures and autographs. They sound exactly how they do on the album live, so if that's not what you're looking for, sorry. Really friendly, close knit band, who give really interesting insight to the songs before they play them. The opening band Reuben and the Dark were phenomenal too! Overall one of my best shows.
