Paper Strangers is a female-fronted indie pop/rock act originating from Regina, Saskatchewan. Fueled by an ever-changing landscape that constantly reaches to extremes, the group explores their own highs and lows in a search for deeper meaning.
It all began in 2005 as a two-person writing/recording project between Doug Slack and Allysia Kerney, who went under the alias 'The Weak Links'. It wasn't until 2008 when they decided to gather other musicians together to focus on the performance aspect of their music. Enter Ellen Bradford-Palik, of classic violin and black metal bass origin, And Derek Carlier, a guitarist and old band member of Doug's.
