by teepoo On March 6th Paper Beat Scissors will release their self-titled debut album. It's an album that flourishes with Tim Crabtree's haunting voice. Here's a sneak peak with the track Rest Your Bones . The song is pretty bare compared to the rest of the album but the delicate emotions still pretend themselves in an album about endingss and new beginnings. Paper Beat Scissors- Rest Your Bones
Paper Beat Scissors es un grupo de rock independiente canadiense que publicó un EP, Flicker , en el año 2009. Desde entonces han estado dando a conocer su música para acabar grabando su primer larga duración, en el que han contado con colaboraciones importantes. Se llamará como el grupo y se publicará el 6 de marzo a través de Forward Music Group . Quizá la más destacada sea la del baterista de Arcade Fire , Jeremy Gara, que mezcló el trabajo en su cocina de Montreal (seguro que no es una cocina al uso). [...]
I don't know about you, but for me, it's all too easy to consign the music coming out of Halifax as not much more than quaint, Celtic-tinged folk tunes and whatever you want to define Joel Plaskett as. It's not as if there isn't some merit to these labels; both sounds are more than well serviced within the city, most of the time exceptionally well, but so much so that they occasionally eclipse those artists that dare to step outside the boundaries and toward something more adventurous. Sitting somewhere just outside that shadow is Paper Beat Scissors [...]

by teepoo Here's my latest CBC Radio 3 discovery. Hailing from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Paper Beat Scissors is a marriage between acoustic guitar and electronic drum tracks. Check out the sweet track called Be Patient with hauntingly simple vocals and a surrounding atmosphere that gives you the goosebumps. Paper Beat Scissors- Be Patient Check out the video!

We don't get to do enough of these "news" or "future watch" posts, not sure why that is, but if you're a Halifax band we've covered before with some news to share, get at us. Anyhoo, Tim, aka Paper Beat Scissors, has done exactly that, getting in touch to relay some rather exciting news. It seems that Mike Feuerstack (AKA Snailhouse) will be producing his new album. The duo will be recording this summer, alternating between the South Shore (the Confidence Lodge), Halifax and Montreal. The goal will be [...]
It was a fun double bill at Bands Undone on February 5, 2010. Also a East Coast musician day too. Playing at Canteen were: Tanya Davis Paper Beats Scissors It was nice to have both play a small set and it was like a preview of what to expect for this weekends " In The Dead Of Winter [...]
I don't know about you, but last night's IDOW opener didn't disappoint your friends here at the hill. We tucked into a table at the back of the intimate Bus Stop Theatre, and even though the weather outside wasn't overly wintry, based on the packed room, we weren't the only ones interested in some musical mid-winter therapy. And that therapy was bountiful, as Toronto's The Wooden Sky backed up their selection to our year-end best of list with a "quiet" but very enthusiastic set of gems from their last album and even a [...]
Yip... you read that right. Halifax resident Tim Crabtree and his band, Paper Beat Scissors have welcomed a new member into the fold. Hoping to add some electronics/programming to the mix, Tim has been collaborating with Chuck Blazevic - you know, the guy that transformed the second half of Ruth Minnikin's stellar release and plays in a band you might have heard of . Anyway, PBS is following up The Wooden Sky tonight @ The Bus Stop Theatre , which should be an amazing show. How amazing you ask? [...]
Tonight sees the kick-off of the 2010 edition of the In The Dead of Winter Festival here in Halifax with a sold out Ani DiFranco show at the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium. IDOW has been warming the cockles of musical hearts here for the last five winters, giving fans and performers alike a reason to look forward to the slushy dead zone that is normally Halifax at the end of January/start of February. Since the Ani show is sold out, I figured we'd start our preview with a look at the festivities on Wednesday night, [...]
A while back, I gushed about Tim Crabtree 's newest EP - under the moniker Paper Beat Scissors - and was equally impressed by his live show when he and a huge collection of friends warmed the stage for Caledonia. For those new to the band's sound, honestly, the picture I've included sums it up perfectly. Warm fuzz, soft focus and incredibly captivating. The Flickr EP is a beautiful mix of acoustic guitar, strings, subtle electronics and tribal percussion, but for anyone in Halifax, seeing these songs take new life in [...]
myspace It seems no matter how often we preach to the masses, people still forget that Halifax is more than Celtic folk and slacker rock. Sure, both styles are well accounted for here in the city, but a blossoming adventurous folk scene is just one of the many other communities strengthening its hold on the area (not to mention the punk, roots and hip-hop acts making waves). What really grabs me about the songwriter scene is that every act is drawing from different sounds and influences. Of course [...]
