Join Paula for her CD release party with special guests Jonathan Inc and Arctic as they celebrate the launch of her debut album "Stay Awhile". Co-produced by Paula Toledo & Jonathan Anderson (Jonathan Inc.), "Stay Awhile" dreams out loud with a moving collection of honest, tightly-penned songs.

PAULA TOLEDO's songs are sublime and compelling, with catchy melodies and lyrics, jangly guitars, atmospheric dreamy sounds, walls of noise and whispered vocals jolted by a raw, powerful voice. Her poignant melodic pop weaves through life’s optimistic restlessness while capturing the innocence of ripened discoveries. “Paula’s music finds its way into your soul and never leaves. Her beautiful, rich voice adds complexity to the original lyrics and playing.” (U-Turn Café) http://www.paulatoledo.com

JONATHAN INC's hypnotic melodies, glistening pop, rich soundscapes, moody atmospheres and powerfully dynamic live shows have garnered them a devoted fanbase and critical acclaim, earning them opening spots for artists like Joseph Arthur, Josh Rouse, Richard Buckner and Victoria Williams. http://www.jonathaninc.com

ARCTIC conjures up a rich live experience by recording as he plays, looping the recordings and constructing each song before the audience. He layers haunting melodies on top of his arrangements, improvising like a jazz artist, intertwining vocals and guitar into a chilled and airy soundscape. http://www.projectarctic.com
