“*Tim Crabtree** has such a unique sound that it’s hard to put his ambient,
folk melodies into word. Cinematic in scope, [it] builds dynamic results
with the most subtle, gentle touch. Each time I see Tim… on stage… I
leave speechless” **- Herohill*
*”a haunting sound”* – *The Chronicle Herald, Halifax*
“*Beautiful” **- Laurie Brown, The Signal, CBC Radio 2*
“*The songs simultaneously shimmer and float”*, *Kieler-Nachrichten, Kiel,
Germany*
“*Paper Beat Scissors could perfectly score an existential indie film
about loss, meaning and love” **- The Coast, Halifax*
The Paper Beat Scissors live show is an intense and intimate experience –
solo finger-picked laments are paired with live loops and a haunting voice
that slips into the music, then darts back out to pull the listener in.
Paper Beat Scissors is heading out on an Eastern Canadian tour this April to
perfect the songs which will be recorded in Montréal this summer to make up
the debut full-length ‘Walk Far’.
MUSEartspace, 211 Euston st. on Saturday April 9th from 7 – 9pm with support
from Drea Macdonald.*
Relocated Brit Tim Crabtree began Paper Beat Scissors in 2008 following a

Bride*) and Mitch Fillion (*Southern Souls, **la Blogotheque*). Tim is also
a regular collaborator with *Tanya Davis*, appears on her latest album *Clocks
and Hearts Keep Going*,* *and produced the music for her* *viral video ‘How
