The Paper Scissors

Overview

It's time to say farewell to one of Sydney's most beloved outfits, The Paper Scissors. On August 29 the trio wrote a teary and thankful "au revoir" letter on their official website to announce their indefinite disbanding.

Reflecting on the highs and lows of their career as musicians, they wrote: "We'd like to thank everyone who's been with us for the last 7 years. You helped us make music that we are immensely proud of, you let us indulge and you came and got your ears blasted and danced and made our musical lives so much fun."

The indie outfit first surfaced in 2005, their unique brand of garage-punk rock glazed over with soul-tinged vocals quickly amassing fans via two albums (Less Talk More Paper Scissors and In Loving Memory), a handful of EPs and their notoriously frenetic live shows. Join them on Saturday night for the last hurrah at The Standard.
