Radio de Paper Rival

Paper Rival is an indie rock band formed in late 2005 from Nashville, Tennessee. Originally known as Keating, the band changed its name to Paper Rival in 2007 after a tour in Canada where the band was mistaken for a Canadian band who already possessed the name. In December 2007, Paper Rival was named Spin.com's "Artist of the Day." [1] The band released its debut, full-length album, Dialog on May 20, 2008 through Photo Finish Records. [2] The group cites artists Bob Dylan, Broken Social Scene, Neutral Milk Hotel and Bruce Cockburn as musical inspirations. [3] The band's songs are originally written acoustically with overdubs and extras added in afterwards. This process ensures a strong, solid composition foundation that allows Paper Rival to perform acoustically without compromising musical quality. [4]
