Paul Collins' Beat band bio:

Paul Collins' Beat have been making music for more than 30 years and
are often called "The Godfathers Of Power Pop." Power Pop is a form
of punk rock that combines rythm and blues and 60s rock sounds such
as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Byrds with the raw energy
of notable punk and garage rock acts such as MC5 and Iggy Pop & The
Stooges.

With encouragement from his longtime friend Dee Dee Ramone of The
Ramones, lead singer Paul Collins re-formed Paul Collins' Beat
during the 1990s. This year, Paul Collins' Beat have released the
all-new studio album entitled "Ribbon Of Gold," as a follow-up to
the 2007 critically acclaimed album "Flying High." In addition, Paul
Collins' Beat have released an all-new live album entitled "Live In
Europe," currently available as a FREE mp3 download full album CD on
the band's website. The new live CD can be downloaded directly from
the Paul Collins Beat website as high quality mp3s without any
signups.

Paul Collins' Beat have toured the world, playing with acts such as
The Cure, The Jam (with Paul Weller), The Police (with Sting), Devo,
Huey Lewis & The News, Joe Jackson and Eddie Money amongst many
others.

Paul Collins' Beat originally formed in 1977 and appeared on the
Caddyshack motion picture soundtrack. The Beat changed their name to
Paul Collins' Beat to avoid confusion when a British Ska Band (The
English Beat) were at one point using the same moniker. Paul Collins
and The Beat have released 10 albums worldwide and continue to tour
the continents, concentrating primarily on USA, Europe, Brazil,
Canada, Japan and Mexico.

Paul Collins was a founding member of The Nerves, a legendary
underground rock group from 1974-77. Forming the same year as The
Ramones and Blondie, The Nerves were a 3-piece band featuring the
talents of Jack Lee, Peter Case (The Plimsouls) and Paul Collins
(The Beat). Aside from touring with The Ramones, The Nerves funded
their own recordings without a record deal. The Nerves originally
recorded the song Hanging On The Telephone, which was leter covered
by Deborah Harry and Blondie on the chart topping "Parallel Lines"
album.
