Papermoon is a guitar and vocals duo based in Vienna, Austria, that has released nine albums.
Papermoon was started in 1991 by Christof Straub (guitar) and Edina Thalhammer (vocals). They had a successful career with acoustic music (guitar and vocals), during the 1990s, predominantly in Austria.After their song "Night After Night" received frequent airplay on the Austrian radio station Ö3, Papermoon signed a recording contract in 1992. Their first album went double platinum with total sales over 100,000.[1] Both of their follow-up albums went gold. Papermoon's most well-known songs are "Tell Me A Poem" and "Lucy’s Eyes.”
Edina Thalhammer left the group in 1996, for a period of almost seven years, during which she was replaced by Roumina Straub and later, for a short time, by Barbara Pichler. During this time, Papermoon released a maxi-single and a "Best Of" album (with three new titles). Edina Thalhammer embarked on a solo career in 2002 with her project "Tau." In 2004, the original members of Papermoon reunited.
In 2006, Papermoon was awarded the Amadeus Austrian Music Award in the "Pop/Rock Group" category for the album "True Love.”
