PAPER COWBOY Album Cover

Las Vegas-based PAPER COWBOY—an original music band exploring the space where Country, Americana, Southern Rock, and Rock n’ Roll collide—have released their self-titled debut album (November 6) via Lovedozer Records. Recorded at The Tone Factory in Vegas and written by frontman Patrick Vitagliano who co-produced it with Vinnie Castaldo, the 13-track album includes the five singles they’ve issued and features a striking country-reimagined interpretation of Sarah McLachlan’s classic “Angel.” Listen to the album HERE and see the track listing below.

The album is filled with rowdy, catchy country rockers and moving ballads, including “My Kind of Crazy” with Phil X of Bon Jovi on lead guitar. The songs are all distinguished by Vitagliano’s commanding, throaty vocals and vivid lyrics. There are also flat-out-fun songs like “Sleepin’ With Yer Mom” and “She’s My Whiskey Drinkin’ White Trash Trailer Baby.”

The band—a parallel project to the Vitagliano-led rock group THE BONES—have also announced the album’s official release party on November 25 (Thanksgiving Eve) between 7-10pm at the Piazza Lounge inside Tuscany Suites & Casino. Look for the group—Patrick Vitagliano (lead vocals, guitar); Mike Campion (bass), Michael “Doc” Ellis (lead guitar), Sean Koos (piano), and Daniel Margasa (drums)—to also perform at the historic 1913-established Pioneer Saloon in Goodsprings, NV on November 21 between 5–9 pm. Follow the band via YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram.

“The album started with one song, ‘My Kind of Crazy,’ which was written as a Bones song,” says Vitagliano. “But instead of giving it the typical Bones treatment, with hard guitars, snarling vocals, etc., I let the song guide the instrumentation and production, and I was surprised where it took me. We kind of landed in this middle ground, where Bon Jovi often finds himself when he steps out of the arena rock mold, but also Springsteen, Mellencamp, Kid Rock, Van Morrison, Steven Tyler, (I could do this all day, but you get the picture), have all found themselves here in this ‘Americana space, and it just feels wonderful.

“Seriously,” he adds, “what a free and easy place to write from, and now it makes so much sense why so many rockers visit this space from time to time, and others move here permanently. It’s all the songwriting, with none of the pretension, the pomp, the bravado, or any of the other shackles that come with fitting into the hard rock mold, so I said Fuck It, let’s do a whole album, which is exactly what we did, then formed a separate band around it, to give these songs their own space to breathe and grow, and be heard live.”

One of the album’s highlights is PAPER COWBOY’s version of Sarah McLachlan’s classic “Angel.” “It’s the only cover on the record,” explains Vitagliano, “and was WAY out of left field. I wanted to include a cover, but in the Country/Americana genre, there’s almost nothing that hasn’t already been done, so I went outside the genre, all the way back to Lilith Fair, and took a crack at what is, in my opinion, one of the most powerful pieces ever written about needing and finding an escape in something, whether it be drugs, alcohol, etc…and having that become your safe space. This song captures the moments in that process, where you aren’t sure yet if this will be a temporary thing, or the permanent shift that eventually kills you. This song lives in that fragility, teetering on that ominous uncertainty, and I’ve always wanted to sing these lyrics, and try to spit and bleed their heaviness with even a fraction of the sincerity that Sarah changed the world with.”

The PAPER COWBOY tracklisting is as follows:

1. My Kind Of Crazy
2. B & E
3. Heart Don’t Know
4. She’s My Whiskey Drinkin’ White Trash Trailer Baby
5. Tonight
6. Angel
7. Baby Just Breathe
8. Never Bring Me Down
9. Oh Anna
10. One More Minute
11. Sleepin’ With Yer Mom
12. Purple Dress
13. Save Me

PAPER COWBOY
RELEASE NEW SINGLE “SAVE ME”
FROM UPCOMING DEBUT ALBUM OUT NOVEMBER 1

ANNOUNCE SHOWS IN LAS VEGAS
INCLUDING ALBUM RELEASE PARTY ON NOVEMBER 25
AT THE PIAZZA LOUNGE INSIDE TUSCANY SUITES & CASINO

“Save Me” Cover Art (Download)

Las Vegas-based PAPER COWBOY—an original music band exploring the space where Country, Americana, Southern Rock, and Rock n’ Roll collide—have just rolled out their latest single “Save Me” (Paper Cowboy Version)” in advance of their self-titled debut album out November 1 on all digital platforms via Lovedozer Records. Listen to the urgent country rocking song, the band’s fifth single, HERE.

The band—a parallel project to the Patrick Vitagliano-led rock group THE BONES—have also announced three shows in Las Vegas: October 7 (Piazza Lounge inside Tuscany Suites & Casino, 7–10pm), November 21 (Pioneer Saloon in Goodsprings, 5–9 pm), and November 25 (Piazza Lounge inside Tuscany Suites & Casino, 7–10pm), the latter of which will mark the official album release party. The band’s lineup consists of Patrick Vitagliano (lead vocals, guitar); Mike Campion (bass), O.B. Womack (lead guitar), Sean Koos (piano), and Daniel Margasa (drums). Follow the band via YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram.

“Save Me”— recorded at The Tone Factory in Vegas and written by Vitagliano who co-produced it with Vinnie Castaldo—is a deeply felt song whose protagonist is caught between the demands of the touring life and the love he’s put on hold: “I was searchin’ for a silver lining/But the neon lights keep blinding/Losin’ my grip, I hold tight on the slippery reins/Every moment is real, and I can feel it slippin’ down the drain.”

“It’s about a performer who has spent a lifetime on the road, and he’s at the stage in his life where he starts to question the sanity of staying on the treadmill,” explains Vitagliano, whose expressive and gritty vocal delivery highlights the track. “You read about your favorite performers ‘retiring’ from touring, and our outsider’s reaction to that is almost always disappointment, as if they are something that we either own, or are there solely for our entertainment.”

He adds: “But these are human beings, who deserve to make human choices for the good of their own well-being, just like anyone at any other profession—like a cop, firefighter, accountant, ditch digger, etc.—that has given their like to their profession and just wants to exhale for the first time in their life. At the end of the day/week/month/year/career, all he can think about is the love that he continues to put on hold for this grind, and he has a moment of clarity.”

PAPER COWBOY
ROLL OUT SOULFUL DEBUT SINGLE “HEART DON’T KNOW”
WATCH THE VIDEO HERE
BY THE LAS VEGAS-BASED FOLK/AMERICANA BAND

“Heart Don’t Know” Cover Art (Download)

Las Vegas-based Folk/Americana band PAPER COWBOY—a parallel project to the Patrick Vitagliano-led rock group THE BONES—have just released their debut single “Heart Don’t Know” on all streaming platforms. Listen to the soulful ballad about the mysteries of romance HERE and watch the video HERE plus the lyric video HERE.

“Heart Don’t Know,” recorded at The Tone Factory in Vegas, was written by Vitagliano who co-produced it with Vinnie Castaldo. Says Vitagliano “So we’ve all heard that age-old question: ‘Is it better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all?’ And I think that universally, we all tend to agree that it IS better to have loved. But man, that’s a place you have to GET to. Because when you are actually going through that loss, you just aren’t fucking there yet, and THAT is the raw, real-time perspective I wrote this song from, where the wound is fresh, the pain is gutting you, and the mental clarity and wisdom that you only get later is nowhere in sight.”

PAPER COWBOY is focused on writing/recording/performing songs that lean toward Nashville, Americana, and Southern Rock influences. While Vitagliano’s band The Bones remains rooted in its signature rock sound, PAPER COWBOY leans more in a Folk/Roots-Rock direction, playing originals and older covers, allowing that side of the songwriting and creativity to breathe and grow in its own space. The band’s line up consists of Patrick Vitagliano (lead vocals, guitar); Mike Campion (bass), Nico Hayek (lead guitar), Tony Silva (Piano) and Shon McKee (drums). Follow the band via YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram.

Look for PAPER COWBOY to perform a stripped-down acoustic set at a fundraiser at The Las Vegas Farm on Wednesday, June 3, 6PM – 9PM. Great wine, live music, and a meaningful cause will come together for one unforgettable evening, billed as “Wine Wednesdays,” benefitting the animals of the farm sanctuary—helping provide care, food, and a safe place for rescued animals to live and thrive. 100% of all money raised will go directly to the care of the farm’s animals. Tickets, priced at $50 each, are available HERE. The Las Vegas Farm is in Centennial Hills at 7222 W Grand Teton Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89131.
