Papercuts – John Brown

Biography
San Francisco, United States (2004 – present)
Papercuts is an American indie pop project centered around San Francisco songwriter and producer Jason Robert Quever. The first official Papercuts release was 2004’s Mockingbird (on Oaklands Antenna Farm Records). The band’s next two albums, Can’t Go Back (2007) and You Can Have What You Want (2009), were released on the Gnomonsong label, before the band signed with Sub Pop records in 2010, releasing the Fading Parade album in 2011.
Quever is the only permanent member of Papercuts, early on playing with whoever of his friends were available. Bay area artist/filmmaker Davis Enos has been the longest standing collaborator (keys), while Frankie Koeller (bass) and Graham Hill (drums) have been regular members of the group since 2008, when the band started touring more regularly.
Quever was born in Arcata, CA, and brought up in a commune. Later he lived in various places until settling in San Francisco. He began making home recordings after buying a four-track recording desk at the age of 15, and his first work as an engineer/producer was on Cass McCombs’ Not the Way EP in 2002.

PaPerCuts seems to be a German band that has been confused with Papercuts

Why is the band name suddenly stylized like a 12-year-old would type it in AOL Instant Messenger? Never seen it that way on any of their albums or...anywhere. Who changed it? Well anyway, just got into this band a few weeks ago and they're my favorite find in a long long time.

what's great about papercuts is that everything they release is amazing and great. not one single mediocre song. slowly becoming one of my favorites. . .does anyone know where to find their first album "rejoicing songs"? can't find it anywhere.
