Papercuts is an American indie pop band formed by Jason Quever with Graham Hill on drums, David Enos on keys, and Frankie Koeller on bass. They originated in San Francisco, California in 2000.
With a sound that blends dreamy melodies and hazy atmospheres, Papercuts has become a prominent figure in the indie music scene. Their music is often compared to artists such as Woods, Lower Dens, and Atlas Sound.
Known for their captivating live performances and introspective lyrics, Papercuts has gained a loyal following over the years. Their discography includes albums like "Parallel Universe Blues" and "Fading Parade," which showcase their unique blend of indie pop and psychedelic influences.

It's a rare to come across an artist who's equally skilled in songwriting, singing and production but lone-arranger Jason Quever, better known as San Francisco's Papercuts is a master of all trades. That the pocket-sized symphonies of brand new album 'life among the savages' are set to see the light of day is through nothing but meticulous focus - due to his whizz-kid knack for instrumental arrangement, Quever often finds himself a sought-after musical collaborator. Quever recorded his latest offering on his ampex 2″ 16-track reel-to-reel in his home studio, pan american, whittling the record down to its essentials over a two year period. While Papercuts echoes bands like Spiritualized and the Zombies in mood, ambitious orchestration (the title track itself contains an arrangement contribution from Beach House's Alex Scally), and the high-calibre dream pop of beautifully hypnotic tracks such as 'Staring at the Bright Lights', the sound on 'Life Among the Savages' is undeniably Quever's own.
