Paper Aeroplanes

Support from Stu Larsen

Paper Aeroplanes is Sarah Howells and Richard Llewellyn, a song spinning duo who have been compared to the likes of Gemma Hayes, Turin Brakes and Nerina Pallot.

Their musical partnership began six years ago in small town west Wales and in 2009 they released their debut album. Its distinctive sound under Sarah’s beautiful vocals was described by the BBC’s Adam Walton as “brilliantly crafted and stoked from a bruised heart’s embers.

Having since gained considerable recognition amongst some prominent champions of new music, such as 6 Music’s Steve Lamacq, Cerys Matthews, last year saw the release of their latest album ‘Little Letters’ on Navigator Records (home to amongst others, Bellowhead).

Paper Aeroplanes are taking those words that you hear in your head and shooting them across the ether. Come fly with them…

‘Paper Aeroplanes’ gently crafted, pinpoint melodies are in a league of their own’ 
ARTROCKER

‘Intimate, jaunty and confident lo-key pop with great melody.’
THE GUARDIAN

‘Paper Aeroplanes are an oasis of gravity in a cultural desert of frivolity, of emotion in a cold hearted world. If you’re not in tears by the end of A Comfortable Sleep then you’re either a Stalinist dictator or a statue. 9/10’
PAUL KERR, FOUROHFIVE 405

‘No pretence , no artifice, just great, memorable songs and a voice that’d charm a piranha.’
BBC WALES

‘My favourite Welsh combo since a slice of bara brith and a cup of sweet tea.’
BEAT SURRENDER

Stu Larsen

Stu Larsen has no fixed address, no job, few possessions and little money – just a lot of generous friends who seem to let him sleep on their floor or couch, or in their spare room as he ventures onward. He appears to be on a journey of sorts, perhaps searching for something greater than can be found in one’s own backyard. The last months have seen him exploring and wandering all over the world. Through Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States, road tripping with friends, playing unexpected shows in unexpected places, staying in the homes of old and new friends all along the way.

‘His songs are naturally seasoned by his experiences, free spirited but not carefree… His eye and his ear are equally attuned to telling a story.’
