Paper Jane the band are the “Succulent Chinese Meal” of Melbourne Americana. An original Central Victorian Americana band originating just down the road from Heathcote in Riddells Creek, feature wooden sonic tones and fragile unprocessed voices. From an era when songs weren’t rolled in tinsel, Paper Jane play honest, analogue roots music.

In 2012, Paper Jane released their debut album ‘First Morning Song’ to full page reviews in The Age and Sydney Morning Herald. The following year they were unearthed by Triple J winning over audiences with their blend of ‘north of the river blues’ and ‘south of the border gospel’, 

Frontman Buck Edwards and stalwart drummer Tim Lane teamed up with fretless bassman Dom Redfern and Renee Bufton on fiddle to release their second longplay 'Across the Reservoir' in 2020, now available on streaming platforms.

Featured on the International Americana Music Show's best of 2020, Paper Jane continue to win acclaim with a shortlist for 'Best Regional Act in the Music Victoria Awards 2021. 

Paper Jane feature powerful harmonies and roots swagger. From heartache ballad to new country anthem, the tunes of Buck Edwards make a humble submission to the Australian roots songbook. If Johnny and Emmy Lou had some bizarre love child, that bastard would be called Paper Jane. 

Catch them opening up proceedings at Friday Night Family Dinner at  The Union Hotel Heathcote.
