Afton Wolfe — “Paper Piano”
Americana Highways brings you this video premiere of Afton Wolfe’s song “Paper Piano” from his recently released album Kings for Sale. Kings for Sale was produced by Oz Fritz, engineered by Oz Fritz and Jeremy Bernstein, recorded at Welcome to 1979 in Nashville and mixed by Mark Robinson at Guido’s South in Madison, Tennessee. The album was mastered by Charlie Rauh in Brooklyn.
“Paper Piano” is Afton Wolfe on guitar and vocals; Mike Stokes on bass; Tommy Stangroom on drums; Ben Babylon on piano and keys; Seth Fox on saxophone and clarinet; Joey Dykes on trombone; Blaise Hearn on trumpet and Patricia Billings on vocals. Horn Arrangements on “Paper Piano” are courtesy of Helen Vaskevitch.
With the grittiest of vocals, Afton Wolfe throws down the gauntlet for a low end nostalgia that strikes a chord of universal recognition. Listen and watch this accompanying video of imaginative childhood scenes and Wolfe’s growly delivery.
This is a song about how imagination is superior to the material world, and JJ Seymour graciously allowed exclusive footage from The JJ Rocks Club, the coolest live music venue in the world. — Afton Wolfe
