{image1}Milwaukee-based punk quintet Paris, Texas has canceled its Summerfest appearance, which was scheduled for 7:30 tonight at the Harley-Davidson Roadhouse stage. A band called Sun Spot will fill the spot, opening for Maritime (9 p.m.) and Death Cab for Cutie (10:30 p.m.).

According to sources, Paris, Texas has been contemplating disbanding, though no official announcement has been made.

The band formed in Madison in 1997 and is comprised of Nick Zinkgraf (guitar), Matt Tennessenn (bass), Scott Sherpe (vocals), Nolan Treolo (guitar) and Sam Vinz (drums).

The band released its debut album "So You Think it's Hot in Here" on Polyvinyl Records in 1999, and since re-located to Milwaukee. Last summer a second full length, "Like You Like an Arsonist," was released on New Line Records.
