About Paper Citizen
Paper Citizen is a Boston-based indie rock project led by Singaporean singer-songwriter, violinist, guitarist and music producer, Claire Gohst. The music blends crisp vocals with lyrical intimacy, spacious guitars and organic rhythms.
At the age of 18, Claire left school to pursue music as a full-time career, starting out in the local live music scene around Singapore, playing the violin and singing in bars, clubs and restaurants with different rock and folk bands.
She soon after moved to Boston to pursue training in the recording arts and jazz violin. The melding of her artistic message, honed with musical influences, such as Wilco, St. Vincent and Andrew Bird, and recording technological skills results in the indie-rock project, Paper Citizen.
Released in 2016, the debut EP 'Postcards in Transit; is a personal reflection that touches on the excitement, but also uncertainty that comes with new experiences, whether dealing with a relationship or moving to a new place.
The singles that followed - 'Slow Motions' and 'History' - continue to develop a rich sound and maintain the thematic sense of tension present in the EP.
Paper Citizen is now in the middle of recording their 2nd EP, titled Distraction. This album is inspired by very personal experiences had in the last 5 years, such as learning the difference from eastern to western cultures, discovering new music, falling in love, heartbreak, the feeling of loneliness, and making steps to adopt Boston as her new home away from home. While being very personal, thematically Paper Citizen also draws from trends observed in present society, such as the dynamic between the constant interconnectedness that modern technology provides, and on the other hand, the deep sense of isolation and increasing difficulty to connect with others.
Paper Citizen was voted Deli Magazine’s “New England Emerging Artist of the Month” for October 2016, and was nominated in the 2017 New England Music Awards for the category New Act of the Year.
