Over the last decade the project of Montreal’s dislocated Brit Tim Crabtree has consistently pleased critics on both sides of the Atlantic.

In the studio, Crabtree has worked with the likes of <a href="spotify:artist:2wxIb2znv7H1AjQgPQbZvC" data-name="Jeremy Gara">Jeremy Gara</a> (<a href="spotify:artist:3kjuyTCjPG1WMFCiyc5IuB" data-name="Arcade Fire">Arcade Fire</a>), Andy Magoffin (<a href="spotify:artist:2HcZuUtnktqMHm4H1R9gAR" data-name="Great Lake Swimmers">Great Lake Swimmers</a>) and Dean Nelson (<a href="spotify:artist:3vbKDsSS70ZX9D2OcvbZmS" data-name="Beck">Beck</a>) and Paper Beat Scissors has shared the stage with <a href="spotify:artist:4G0XDEk7RbA4BBCTs917U9" data-name="Sun Kil Moon">Sun Kil Moon</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:12BDNYhvDp2RIeF9pabPzv" data-name="Clogs">Clogs</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:37qXWlhfRvpxmIeTKvfw8B" data-name="My Brightest Diamond">My Brightest Diamond</a> (who he collaborated with on a 2013 7" release <a href="spotify:track:6Xw0YT7J4d8dDa2SPT2F6M" data-name="Tendrils (Live)">Tendrils (Live)</a>) and <a href="spotify:artist:2WIb75pwIt78VCAhAtPObY" data-name="Tanya Tagaq">Tanya Tagaq</a>.
