Paige was a pop punk and rock ensemble originating from Hertfordshire, England, established in 2006 by guitarist and lead vocalist Lewis White alongside drummer Alex Tillbrook. They toured extensively throughout Europe and Japan, releasing music through the UK label Small Town Records and Japan's Kick Rock Music. Their most recent EP, Young Summer, debuted on 24 January 2011, with the music video for the title track shot in Sweden and broadcast on the Kerrang television network. The band has supported acts such as Kids In Glass Houses, You Me At Six, and Bring Me the Horizon.
History
Paige was created in 2006 by Lewis White and Alex Tillbrook. Their first EP, If You Say So, came out in 2008 and included Aaron Hunt on guitar, Nathan White handling bass duties, and Paul Hinwood on keyboards. Prior to the release of their second EP, Young Summer, in 2011, Nathan White departed from the group. This follow-up received a more varied critical response compared to their initial release. Arthur Walwin joined the lineup for the subsequent tour as the band began composing material for their debut full-length album, performing new songs during live shows.
The production and mixing of Paige's first album were financed through a PledgeMusic campaign.
On 1 August 2012, keyboardist Paul Hinwood exited the band; rather than recruiting a replacement, Paige opted to continue as a quartet. At that time, they also revealed that their upcoming album was close to completion.
