SoundClick has ranked Paper Rock Scissors among its top ten unsigned bands. They have had number one songs on the Acoustic, Classical, Country, Pop, Rock and World charts as well as top ten songs in genres ranging from Beach to Bluegrass.
The band consists of Gord Easton, Stephen Marsh and David Rintoul. They met at a college radio station and have been making music together ever since. Their latest album is called Places. Places is filled with songs about the group's travels around the world.
Paper Rock Scissors appears at coffee houses and folk festivals in the Southern Ontario region of Canada. The best thing about playing live is the people who come up after the show and tell you how your songs have touched them in some way. That's what music is all about.
Our music is a blending of influences, from traditional folk and roots music, to the great singer songwriters from the seventies, to blues, punk and progressive rock influences. You'll hear an eclectic mix of material on our latest album, because it's also influenced by local music we've been overhearing in our travels.
