Getting to Know: The Papersons
Café du Nord will be the setting for a showcase of three talented local rock bands tonight: Raised By Robots, The Aimless Never Miss, and The Paper Sons. The Paper Sons, four extremely talented guys from the Bay Area, are known for their real alternative-rock sound (a bit of a throw back to the early 90's but somehow still very current). We got a chance to talk to Tom McCullough (pictured second to the left), the lead-singer of the band, about all of his favorite things and most important, his favorite spots in San Francisco. McCullough is the newest addition to this rock quartet. When we first introduced The Papersons to you, we mentioned that their EP was "arriving soon." Well, it has and it's good; very good.
