We are Paper Plane: Em (instrumentals) and Miranda (vocals). Both having careers in the band, orchestra, and musical theatre circuits (Miranda performed at Triple Door 2021-23 in This is Halloween), we are now excited to expand with our own smaller & more versatile project. With options for acoustic or electric on several instrument/voice pairings, we play a wide variety of tunes from jazz/lounge to unique modern & classic pop/rock covers & mashups, easily tailored to dining background ambiance or a more cabaret style show.
