“If the Beastie Boys partnered with Eminem and asked MUTEMATH to back them up, they would get Paper Tongues.” –Beatcrave

Out of Charlotte, North Carolina comes PAPER TONGUES, a seven piece outfit that fuses massive rock n’ roll melodies with fiery hip hop. With a sound entirely their own, Paper Tongues is set to release their debut album via A&M/Octone featuring the first single, “Ride To California.” The band has put together an eclectic mix of tracks for their major label debut, stemming from each of the band’s members’ varied upbringings. Embracing elements of rock, funk, rap, and soul, Paper Tongues has created a sound appealing to the music lover in us all. It’s music for everyone— an assorted sound from a collective of true artists.

For a first taste, Paper Tongues is offering up the single, “Ride To California” as a free download. Paper Tongues will hit the road for a 12-stop tour with Switchfoot starting January 8th in Reno, Nevada.
