LIVE VIDEO WEBCAST ELI “PAPERBOY” REED CONCERT

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

We’ve got some real soul music coming up for you tomorrow, Eli “Paperboy” Reed and The True Lovers. He is one of the hottest soul/R&B artists of the moment and is already compared to some of the greatest names around. We’ll be webcasting his Amsterdam concert tomorrow (Wednesday July 15th) night at Fabchannel.

I found a video of his 2007 SXSW show to give you an idea of what to expect.

Eli “Paperboy” Reed Biography
Eli “Paperboy” Reed is a white guy from the US who surprises you with his genuine soul in style of the great Otis Redding and Sam Cooke.

His powerful voice and own songs and arrangements bring the 60’s back to life.

He grew up in Brookline, MA. Growing up he was exposed to an excess of music. His father was a music critic and gave him full access to his record collection. Eli Reed absorbed as much as he could. In the end it was the gospel, soul, blues and R&B that stole his hart. He taught himself to play the piano, guitar and harmonica and putt his skills to test by busking the streets.

Eli Reed got at job in Mississippi and started playing in clubs there and at one point even ended up on stage with drummer Sam Carr. It was in Mississippi that he got his nickname Paperboy, because of the newsboy style hat he wore at the time.

Back in Boston Eli Reed formed his band The True Lovers and released the cover record ‘Sings “Walkin’ and Talkin’ (For My Baby)” and Other Smash Hits’ in 2005. After a successful gig at 2007’s SXSW he signed to Q Division on which he released his second record, with only own material, ‘Roll With You’.
