"Papercuts is Jason Quever's cathedral of sound, a place for the desperate worship of all things analog and devotion to the musicianship of the old world. His new album for Gnomonsong,
Can't Go Back
, is a marriage of timeless songs, richly textured studio sounds, classic rock/pop hookery, and focused narratives -- all delivered with Quever's warm voice and wonderfully layered melodies. The first formal Papercuts release,
Mockingbird
(2004), received a warm critical reception, earning four stars in Great Britain's
Uncut
. The song 'Pan American Blues' was a top-five download of the week on insound.com and the album rode the CMJ Top 200 for months. Before this, life was different. Raised in a commune in Humbolt County, Quever drifted up and down the West Coast, eventually making a home for himself in San Francisco. The seeds of Papercuts were sown in 2002 when he broke into a vacationing friend's apartment, eight-track in tow, to record piano tracks for Cass Mccombs'
Not The Way
. Ever since, Quever has kept busy, playing with and recording other friends' bands. He's collaborated with Casiotone For The Painfully Alone, The Skygreen Leopards, as well as Vetiver, and considers working intimately with such contemporary songwriters to be a significant influence."
