About 

Paper Verses are a folk duo from Broadstairs, made up of two guitars, the occasional harmonica and harmonium and lots of vocal harmonies. Their original songs are characterized by a flat-picking, intricate guitar style and vocals, which are both delicate and powerful in their delivery. Their sound is intimate, with thoughtful lyrics, exploring both the everyday mundane as well as those big questions in life.
