The Paperboys make music that is best described by founder Tom Landa as high energy music that is like a "Guinness with a tequila chaser while listening to an Americana Jukebox."
From Vancouver, B.C.., The Paperboys are a Celtic folk music band, performing music that blends Mexican Son Jarocho mixed in with Irish Jigs and Reels, a good dose of Country and Bluegrass, along with Ska, Soca, African Highlife and Reggae, Zydeco, Soul, Pop,and Funk. Their sound is World Roots Music. It is GOOD music with a tendency to connect people. It is the only multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-generational, multi-lingual, multi-instrumental, genre bending, co-ed band you will hear today!
Founded in 1992, the Paperboys have performed at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and routinely perform sold out performances at some of the most popular and prestigious clubs and festivals throughout Canada, the United States, Mexico, and Europe.
Their unique blend of Celtic-Latin folk music is not to be missed!
