what I'm listening to: paperdoll's ballad nerd pop


I recently got turned on to the music of PaperDoll, and damn, I wish I had heard about this band sooner. Hailing from Brooklyn/Manhattan, and fronted by ex-opera singer Teresa Lee, their album Ballad Nerd Pop was released last year. I'm listening to it right now, and really digging it.

They've been described sort of like Pat Benetar meets the Killers. "Nerdy pop" with a rock edge. And based on what I've heard so far, they kind of kick ass.

Like I said, I regret not giving PaperDoll a listen much sooner. They were recently chosen to play Indie Week Ireland 2009 (the only American band selected). To learn more about PaperDoll, visit the band's website here, and their MySpace page here. And check out the video for "Anything at All."
