Eli 'Paperboy' Reed Preaches To New Converts On Tour

Boston, MA. (Top40 Charts/ Q-Division) - Twenty-four year old soul man Eli "Paperboy" Reed and his seven piece band, The True Loves, have been wowing unsuspecting audiences on tour this spring. Recently billed with emo punksters Say Anything for a run of national dates, Eli won new fans who had little previous knowledge of the soul powerhouse.
