About Us
Thank you for stopping by! Paper Mountain is an acoustic duo comprised of singer/songwriters Alice Conner and Sean Parker. They have been performing together for years, melding their different musical influences into a soulful package of blues, folk, country, jazz, rock and everything in between. They are most at home playing at vineyards, weddings, cozy coffeehouses, private parties and festivals. They have had a great deal of success from their debut CD entitled, "View from Above" (recorded at Flat Five studios in Salem, VA.) and have performed live in-studio sessions on 93.7 BOB FM, 89.5 WHRV and 100.9 WRRW.
During the day, they are both full-time private music instructors in Virginia Beach, Va. with almost 25 years combined experience -- Sean teaches bass, mandolin and guitar and Alice teaches voice, piano and guitar. Sean has been playing in many bands for over 15 years and grew up in the Roanoke area where he has performed alongside such well-known musicians as Dave Matthews, Cool and the Gang and KC and The Sunshine Band.
Alice has been singing and writing songs on the piano and guitar since she was a small child, but decided to pursue it as a career as a teenager and started taking piano, voice, and guitar lessons simultaneously. She was born and raised in Virginia Beach, VA., and in 2004, earned a B.A. in Music from Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA. She was fortunate enough to perform with the university choir at Carnegie Hall and to study abroad in Germany while attending O.D.U. Since graduation she has been busy teaching, writing and performing her own music with Sean.
Together, Alice and Sean formed Paper Mountain---Two musicians meeting in the middle of the same art form, from different directions...
