Faded Paper Figures is an Indie/Electronica/Rock
trio based in both Los Angeles, California, and New Haven, Connecticut. Their ability to stay together while having challenging careers on
opposite coasts is part of their charm.
With four albums and an EP, listening to all of
their music can cause it to blur together, especially given the gentleness of
their sound.
A better introduction is to watch videos. Their
Youtube channel has an official videos playlist that combines performance
footage and a few charming cinematic videos. Playing through these can give a
good idea of both the personality and the sound of the band.
Of the genres they list, I think "indie"
is the most accurate. They are pretty mellow and while they do make good use of
synthesizers, it doesn't get into some of the weirdness of electronica; things
are kept more tuneful.
Watch some videos, and then if you want to explore
more, there is a lot to choose from.
