Dear Paris – Tokyo (Germany Germany remix) | download on Remixes Vol. 1
Dear Paris are Stefan Bächle (vocals & guitar), Michael Kreibohm (synthesizers, guitar & bass), Tobias Riethmüller (bass & synthesizers) and Mathias Völkel (drums & percussion). As you may have guessed by their names, they’re not french but german. But let them tell the story:
Where are you from?
Tobi: We’re from Stuttgart, Germany.
How do you know each other?
Michael: We pretty much found one another over the Internet. Stefan and I first met in 2006 and were in a band that split up shortly after, but we got back together in 2008 to form Dear Paris. Tobi auditioned to be our new bassist a year later and we had known Mathias from shows with his former band.
Any specific relation to Paris?
Michael: Not really, no. It just has a nice sound to it and it’s easy to remember.

Please Never gives a first taste of what to expect: yummy.
