Exclusive:: Paper Beat Scissors ft. Dreamsploitation

Yip... you read that right. Halifax resident Tim Crabtree and his band, Paper Beat Scissors have welcomed a new member into the fold. Hoping to add some electronics/programming to the mix, Tim has been collaborating with Chuck Blazevic - you know, the guy that transformed the second half of Ruth Minnikin's stellar release and plays in a band you might have heard of.

Anyway, PBS is following up The Wooden Sky tonight @ The Bus Stop Theatre, which should be an amazing show. How amazing you ask? Well, why hear it from me when you can get the details straight from the horse's mouth:

I'm really pumped about it - it's going to be the first time that Chuck Blazevic (Dreamsploitation) will be playing with us. He's going to be backing up on guitar, as well as doing some electronic signal processing, beat programming and playing-with-his-flashy-light-box stuff.

Including this live higher-end electronic element has been a goal of the project from the start - this will be the first time we've managed to combine it with the orchestral instruments (this time double bass - Kyle Cunjak - Share/Olympic Symphonium/Snailhouse and so on, and cello - Jess Tesolin), found instruments/non-instruments-turned-into-instruments (Ryan Veltmeyer) over the guitar and harmonized vocals backbone...

So basically, you'd be foolish to miss this one folks.
