Biography

English musical group The Paper Dolls, formed in 1966 and consisted of Susanne "Susie" Mathis from London, Pauline Bennett from Bletchley, and Susan "Sue" Marshall from Northampton. The trio met while studying dance at the Pitt-Draffen Academy of Dramatic Arts in Northampton. Their breakthrough came when composer Tony Macaulay, who worked for Pye Records, selected them to record "Something Here in My Heart (Keeps A Tellin' Me No)". Released in February 1968, the single peaked at number 11 on the UK Singles Chart and led to appearances on shows like Top of the Pops and Beat-Club. The Paper Dolls released their debut album, Paper Dolls House, later that year. Notable tracks included "My Life (is in Your Hands)" and a cover of Captain of Your Ship by Reparata & the Delrons. Despite initial success, subsequent singles like "Someday" failed to chart. In 1970, they released two more singles under RCA Victor: "My Boyfriend's Back" and "Remember December". The group underwent several lineup changes before disbanding in 1979. Notable compilation albums include Paper Dolls House: The Pye Anthology (2001) and Something Here in My Heart (The Complete Recordings 1968–1970) (2018).
