Backstory:
Frilly Significance came to be in the fall of 2012 in the small coastal town of New Haven, Connecticut. Five childhood friends – Oscar, Dean, Oliver, Ellie, and Jill – discovered they shared a common love for music and began playing together in each other’s garages. For them, music was not only a way to express themselves but also a medium to make sense of the world around them. They gained local recognition for their refreshingly unique sound and thought-provoking lyrics which eventually lead to a record deal.
Inspired by their favorite indie rock bands, the band wanted to create music that was both fun and meaningful. They believed in the significance of the seemingly frilly bits of life, hence the name Frilly Significance. Their music is a celebration of life’s small but meaningful moments and the significance that these can hold.

Title:
“Paper Plane Dreams”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] I was just a little boy [D]
[Em] Dreaming big, paper plane in hand [C]
[G] Taking off, aiming high [D]
[Em] To the cotton candy land [C]
(Chorus)
[G] Oh, these paper plane dreams [D]
[Em] Soaring high, touching the sky [C]
[G] The world beneath, a little blip, [D]
[Em] And my spirit, so hard to clip [C]
(Verse 2)
[G] Now I’m grown but still the boy [D]
[Em] Dreaming big, guitar in hand [C]
[G] Strumming tunes, touching hearts [D]
[Em] In my cotton candy land [C]
(Chorus)
[G] Oh, these paper plane dreams [D]
[Em] Soaring high, touching the sky [C]
[G] The world beneath, a rhythm to keep, [D]
[Em] And my passion, so hard to sleep [C]

“I’ve been a fan of Frilly Significance since their first gig in our town. Their music speaks to the dreamer in me. It’s like they’ve put my thoughts into their songs. Like “Paper Plane Dreams” for instance, it perfectly encapsulates the feeling of holding onto your dreams and never letting them go. Their music has helped me through tough times and I am forever grateful they exist. Being a part of their journey is a privilege.”
