Papa is band fronted by papa pill, and is guaranteed to stop the breath of any finicky music critique. The carefully selected combination of pop culture influence is just the right blend of uppers and downers with no need for a prescription to swallow.  Every song is like a pill that sets you free from pain.  One to get you up, one to make you sleep. A pill to make you feel rich and beautiful or one to kick you to the streets. This band is sure to make any brain with ears attached a pillhead for life.  These dolls are just easy to swallow.  They pop, they hit fast, hit hard.  These are the only pills that leave you free from the guilt of addiction.  When the show is over don’t be surprised if you find yourself scavenging the shag carpet for one last morsel or shaking down grandma’s medicine cabinet for just one last taste.  So sit back and take your medication from Papa and their pills. 

56th Street Records still longs for a second album and another show from this band.  Guitars, drums, bass, horns, vocals and a dj.  Awesome.
