In May of 2004, the future looked bright to the members of Paulson. Alex Burton (Bass), Logan Laflotte (Vocals), Jeff Widner (Drums), Mike Smeen (Synths) and Jesse Burton (Guitar) had just signed with respected indie Initial Records and were preparing to re-release their original demo as a makeshift debut LP, Variations.” Despite the low budgets and daunting obstacles, the group commited itself to touring full-time, quitting jobs and dropping out of college.
Fast forward 18 months. Poised to release their sophmore album, it’s almost impossible to recognize the formerly fresh-faced group. Since last year they have endured the abrupt closing of their label (who neglected to provide even a single press release or advertisement in support of their debut), a protracted legal
dispute to recover their record and win release from their contract, the departure of long-time girlfriends who objected to their obessive touring schedule, and their eventual redemption in signing to Long Island-based One Day Savior Recordings (Boys Night Out, Juliana Theory, Hopesfall).
In the last year they have performed over 250 shows in 34 states and Canada, touring with the likes of Senses Fail (Vagrant), Midtown (Columbia), Moneen (Vagrant), Bear Vs. Shark (Equal Vision), Folly (Triple Crown), Far-less (Tooth & Nail), The Break (Ferret), Jenoah (Drive-Thru), Endicott (Equal Vision), and many others, despite having no booking agent or management.
