biographical info

PS I Love You has been performing in Kingston, Ontario since 2006.  The band was originally the solo vehicle for multi-instrumentalist Paul Saulnier.  Paul has performed in everything from a country-rock band to improvised noise duo.  PS I Love You was intended to be his experimental, sort of weird pop music outlet. He would play shows with guitar looping pedals and keyboards and lots and lots of gadgets and gimmicks. He later recruited Benjamin Nelson on drums to replace the often inconsistent Casio drum machine and was probably the best decision of Paul's young adult life. All of a sudden PS I Love You's weird little songs were becoming mini, soaring rock anthems!  Soon thereafter,  they formed a strong friendship with John O' Regan (Diamond Rings, The D'urbervilles). The band soon released the split 7" inch single with Diamond Rings,' "All Yr Songs" as the a-side and PS I Love You's "Facelove" as the b-side. The single saw an amazing response, and eventually sold out. The singles success took the young band by surprise. Soon thereafter, folks outside of Kingston began demanding  the band  travel and perform.  This marked a new beginning for PS I Love You.
