Canadian Indie Rock outfit Paper Lions are preparing to take Australia by storm with a run of East Coast tour dates, starting with an appearance at the acclaimed Woodford Folk Festival, to celebrate the release of their chart topping sophomore album ‘My Friends’.

Since forming, the lads from the small Canadian Province have written a fairy tale of success. They have received over twenty Canadian East Coast Music Awardnominations (six in 2014 alone) and taken home Best Pop EP at the 2013 Independent Music Awards, whilst receiving consistent airplay across the board on stations such as ABC, NBC, MuchMusic, MTV and AUX, just to name a few achievements.

Paper Lions have enjoyed a warm reception from a rapidly growing fan base throughout the world. Their single ’Travelling’ has received well over 5 million views on YouTube, and is a true testament of the bands reach.

Whilst touring throughout Canada and aboard, Paper Lions have shared stages with the likes of CAKE, Tokyo Police Club, Hollerado, The Rheostatics, No Joy, Hot Hot Heat and Electric Six. Oh, and they’ve also performed for Duchess Camilla & Prince Charles.

Paper Lions have recently released their sophomore full-length album, ‘My Friends’, recorded with producer Howard Redekopp (Tegan and Sara, The New Pornographers, Mother Mother), and will be kicking off their Australian Tour in December 2014.
