Paper Route is composed of Chad Howat, J.T. Daly and Gavin McDonald. After forming as a studio project in 2004 they eventually released their debut full-length album "Absence" in April, 2009.
"Absence" sent them on the road for the next two years touring with the likes of Paramore, Phantom Planet, mewithoutyou, Passion Pit, and Copeland. It also earned them several spots in film and television in movies such as "500 Days of Summer" and Tv shows like "One Tree Hill," "C.S.I. New York," "The World of Jenks" and many more.
After taking a short break from touring Paper Route started recording their second album. In late 2011, the band announced that they had finished recording "The Peace of Wild Things" and are planning a 2012 release. "Better Life" was released digitally in November 2011 as its first single.
Paper Route has always considered themselves more of a creative collaboration then just a band. With all members involved in Nashville's art & music scene, they have managed to create a sonic & visual world that has been the bands driving force, and what paper route fans tend to gravitate towards.

The Echo Friendly - (Set time: 9:00 PM)

Jake Rabinbach and Shannon Esper are best friends, ex-lovers, who live two blocks away from each other in Greenpoint, Brooklyn and sing together in the Echo Friendly. They have released one single "Same Mistakes" with Cantora records and are preparing to release their debut full length in 2013. Recorded at High/Low studios in Memphis, TN with Jake Vest and Greg Faison, the record will chronicle their turbulent relationship in a moody song cycle equal parts digital age correspondence and anthemic pop. Live, The Echo Friendly play as a 5-piece band in the New York area.
