Fun Loving Folkcore duo featuring Paleface himself and drummer Monica "Mo" Samalot.  They are currently on a US tour in support of new record "The Show Is On The Road" (Ramseur Records, 2009)

Schooled personally by Daniel Johnston, Paleface was discovered at an  NYC open mic in 1990 by Danny Fields (The Stooges, The Ramones, MC5).  He soon became the first Antifolk (Neofolk/Modern Folk) artist signed to major labels (Sire Records, Polydor Records), followed by college radio hits and national tours with the likes of Billy Bragg and The Breeders.  While hanging around the Lower East Side with his then close pal Beck, Paleface became a major influence on Beck's early work.... "We used to go to all the open mikes together. He taught me Daniel Johnston songs on the sidewalk and let me sleep on his couch.  He was a great songwriter, a generous friend, and a big influence on my early stuff", Beck on Paleface (American Music-Annie Leibovitz). 

After touring with The Breeders, PF collapsed and nearly died from alcohol.  Following long recovery & cleansing  PF returned to NYC's Antifolk scene and befriended a new breed of artists (The Moldy Peaches/Kimya Dawson, Regina Spektor, and Langhorne Slim among others).  Paleface became a major source of influence and inspiration to many of them.  After finishing a record with his band Just About To Burn which featured drummer Monica 'Mo' Samalot, PF met The Avett Brothers...who fell in love with it 'My favorite all-time record by a friend' (Seth Avett, June 07).  They developed a strong bond based on respect and admiration for eachothers work.  Paleface often shares the stage with The Avetts, and his songwrting, vocals and insrumentation are featured on two of their records.  The Avett Brothers returned the favor and guest-performed on Paleface's new record,  'A Different Story'.  PALEFACE is currently on a US Tour with his darling drummer Monica 'Mo' Samalot and they have also been performing at festivals such as Floyd Fest (VA), Shakori Hills (NC), Pickathon (OR), and Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion (TN-VA) among others.
