Eli ‘Paperboy’ Reed, apoyado por la solvencia de su arrolladora banda The True Loves, recoge el relevo de los grandes maestros del soul, una reencarnación del mejor Sam Cooke y Otis Redding. Un joven de 24 años de voz portentosa, un blanco de Massachussets que en el siglo 21 suena al micrófono como un negro de Alabama hace 50 años, como sacado de una máquina del tiempo.

Su herencia gospel, su ritmo psychobilly, su contundencia rock y su impagable presencia escénica son una insinuante invitación al baile. Se mueve con la elegancia de los clásicos y, desde el escenario, seduce con la clarividencia de un predicador. Eli ‘Paperboy’ estremece a los nostálgicos y agita a los modernos; su desgarradora voz nos devuelve a un tiempo pretérito que nunca se fue.

de él han dicho....

“Mr. Reed invokes the stylish and muscular R&B of Otis Redding and Sam Cooke with convincing suavity.” – THE NEW YORK TIMES

“A whole-hearted son of soul … Amy Winehouse better watch her back.” – THE VILLAGE VOICE

“Serious swagger and old-school sincerity … a local favorite set to break out on a national level.” – THE BOSTON GLOBE

“There are singers who sing and there are singers whose sheer power of expression can knock you off your feet. Eli ‘Paperboy’ Reed falls firmly into the latter category … he threatens to be one of the defining voices of the year” – MOJO MAGAZINE

“A star on the rise … Reed stunned the crowd as he screeched and hollered through a no-holds-barred set of originals that could be easily mistaken for lost Stax classics.” – THE BOSTON HERALD

“The truth is in the grooves … Reed’s song ‘The Satisfier’ is the sound that’s bulldozed the skeptics – dirty guitar, in-the-pocket rhythm section, goosy organ, rocking call-and-response horns, and backing vocals that out-Ronson Mark Ronson.” – THE BOSTON PHOENIX

“Reed’s blazing soul gets the pulse racing and the spirit testifying. The brilliantly nicknamed singer combines the sob of Al Green with the beef of Otis Redding, and boasts a band, The True Loves, who look young enough to be in some emo group but have better taste.” – MOJO MAGAZINE

“A belting singer….A call to party like it’s 1969.” – THE TIMES OF LONDON

“[Reed] is strong and confident…he delivers a classic soul boast without sounding churlish or macho…” – NO DEPRESSION

“A voice to rival the greats.” – THE WORD MAGAZINE

“The audience was fully swept up in the soul wayback machine Reed and his band constructed … one look at Reed wailing his guts out and it was clear he meant every note.” – BILLBOARD

“If I had to choose a new song I loved, I’d pick ‘Take My Love With You’ by this guy from Boston, Eli ‘Paperboy’ Reed.” – NICK LOWE talking to MOJO MAGAZINE
