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.

Good promotional writing of local events and musical acts - saw your link in the Linked-In group. However your writing about Beauty and the Beast isn't a review about the execution/presentation of the film, it's a straight recommendation!
Reviews ideally should consider various aspects of an artistic project in a somewhat objective manner. They ideally shouldn't look or seem to be plugs written by the producer/artist's buddies :-) Okay, it's easy to dispense advice...
Hi, thanks for your comment, I did the post on 'Beauty and the Beast' as it was featured as my main photo image at the top of my blog so I wanted to recommend people to see it as I changed the image to the new J.Edgar film, I wanted to do a 'coming soon' post every time I change the image and since I have actually watched it, it would be a straight recommendation as I am a big fan of this film. Secondly I love the music of 'The Paper Faces' so I just give my opinion on here as I have nothing bad to say so far as they have just started up this summer officially. Thankyou for your advice and insight though as well as taking the time to check it out and comment. :)
