New Music Talent: The Paper Faces

Joshua Edlington and Alex Allen are two friends who have collaborated to create a music duo that will hopefully inspire more young musicians from North London to do so. They have named themselves The Paper Faces and they really do have a passion for music. They are both classically trained and have so much talent in this it is no wonder they have decided to pair up. They have created music that is not only inspired from their classical music background but that infuses commercial and modern twists.

They both work on the lyrics, the singing/rapping, producing and the backing tracks/beats. They are hoping to make a name for themselves and they have done quite well so far. They practise and record their tracks in their North London studio and have created four amazing tracks that will be available to listen to below.
What I love about their sound is that it is original as they have worked so hard to create amazing backing tracks that have a house and dance feel to it as well as R&B elements. They have catchy tunes that will hopefully get them noticed but also undeniably a talent for song writing.
I love finding new artists that have worked hard and come from my local area. There is so much talent out there and these young musicians have certainly made an impact with their first four songs. They have successfully performed in a variety of locations and events; from fashion shows, bars to University gigs, they have done numerous performances to make themselves heard.
They have created a solid fan base through nothing but hard work and promotion. Alex has provided YouTube with some excellent violin performances highlighting his instrumental talents.  He also plays piano to grade 8 as well as drums and bass. What I love about his instrumental videos is that he does medleys of current songs so he is always keeping up to date and he makes classical music modern.





Josh definitely has the voice and this is beautifully shown in their cover of Adele’s ‘Someone Like You’ but he also plays trumpet to grade 8 as well as the guitar.


This duo is the one to watch with numerous talents they have worked their way up to creating brilliant tracks that are definitely worth the listen.
