SUMMARY:The Faux Paws
DESCRIPTION:From raging fiddle tunes\, to saxophone solos and unrequited 
 love songs\, the music of The Faux Paws would be hard to pin down with s
 tandard genre descriptions. The trio’s contagious groove\, and feel-good
  melting pot folk music has been honed over ten years of playing togethe
 r\, and is the sound of three close friends (two of which happen to be b
 rothers)\, who feel a musical kinship that transcends any stylistic limi
 tations. Now\, after nearly a decade of music making\, the bi-coastal tr
 io are releasing their self-titled debut album “The Faux Paws.” Brothers
  Andrew and Noah VanNorstrand grew up playing contra dance music with th
 eir musician mother in the band Great Bear. Chris Miller grew up in Flor
 ida\, and he was enamored with bluegrass\, and studied jazz before going
  on to play with GRAMMY nominated Cajun-country band The Revelers. Since
  meeting in 2012\, the trio have toured across North America several tim
 es\, sometimes under the name The Faux Paws\, sometimes as part of other
  larger ensembles. But due to their commitments to other bands and music
 al projects\, the timing was never right to focus on making The Faux Paw
 s a priority. Instead\, they took their time learning about different st
 yles of music from one another\, and finding where their interests and s
 kills could create unexpected and exciting new sounds. “I love super glo
 ssy pop music\, and Chris is always pushing more of a jazz influence” sa
 ys Noah.“ But we all have a strong background in dance music\, so almost
  everything we do has rhythm and groove\, and is based around hook and f
 eel.” It may have taken The Faux Paws ten years to make their debut albu
 m\, but those years have clearly not gone to waste. Now\, with an experi
 mental but cohesive vision\, the trio brings together seemingly unrelate
 d musical elements into one joyful and distinctive collection\, deeply r
 ooted in the raw humanity of folk dance and music traditions. “…a compel
 ling blend of traditional music virtuosity and driving dancehall rhythms
  alongside progressive instrumentation and improvisation” – Kara Kundert
 \, Bluegrass Pride “There’s so much that’s straightforwardly eccentric a
 bout The Faux Paws on paper that the contrast between sounds and sensibi
 lities relaxes into a logical whole. The three have carved out a unique 
 character in a genre where distinguishing oneself is a surprisingly diff
 icult task. Considerable musical talent…they’re undoubtedly good. Whatev
 er first impression the trio makes on paper\, they make a better one wit
 h this record.” – Andy Crump\, No Depression A truly unique ensemble wit
 h such style\, flair and soul that it’ll make you do a double take. – Br
 ian Carroll\, Red Line Roots “[The Faux Paws] play an interesting mix of
  bluegrass and folk music\, with elements of jazz and other roots music 
 styles thrown in…[‘Guacmaster’] launches as a tasty mandolin number befo
 re Miller’s sax leads the guys off in a different direction. An amusing 
 and clever take on the fiddle tune tradition.” – Bluegrass Today\n\nTick
