BIOGRAPHY
My interest in music started with playing the Descant and Treble Recorders when I was at Junior school. My Dad initially got me interested in Music as he was the Choir leader and Organist at the local Church. He also taught me, at beginner level, the structure of Chords and Melody on the two layered Yamaha Organ we had at home, along with the Bass Pedals that I could barely reach.
My early influences were records bought by my Brother and Sister: Beatles, Stones, Dave Brubeck, Hollies, The Who etc. The first record I bought was David Bowie’s Space Oddity in 1969. This was bought by mistake as I had asked my Dad to get me the Space Odyssey record from the same film!
Other early influences were ELP, Elton John, T. Rex, Supertramp, ELO, Fleetwood Mac, Eric Clapton, The Cars, Simon and Garfunkel, Nancy Griffith and too many more to mention.
I started writing music in 1986 just for fun, which is really still the case today. It is a huge hobby of mine. I eventually bought some recording software (Sequel 2), which was the Prequel to Cubase, and a Yamaha PSR-295 keyboard. I was working full time in the IT industry over a prolonged period, which included travel and locating, sometimes for extensive periods, in Europe. Song writing was put on the ‘back burner’.
When I settled back in Bristol, UK, I started to write and record music again. I have remixed and re-mastered my first seven tracks and have released them on an extended EP called ‘Stars’ and seven new tracks on an extended EP, ‘Notes’.

Summary of Reviews:
“Lucky Man” rectifies anything that might confuse about Paul’s music. This is an epic track for the most part. It starts off kind of like it’s not going to go anywhere, and then it comes on like a freight train with all kinds of goodness that the surrounding tracks only hint to lie within his skill set and songwriting skills as well. A cosmic delight is what it is. 'Hindsight' shows the mellow side of Paul and evens out what are some good solid tracks around three extraordinary ones I picked. ('Lucky Man', 'Stars' and 'Hindsight') - Gas House Radio.
He has a unique sound, with some good pop of both the soft and semi-hard rocking variety. “Hindsight”, about another relationship gone bad that we try to get to work but just don’t find the chemistry to make it. He came through with one of the smoothest tracks in this, with yet another magnificent keyboard solo. All worth checking out - Vents Magazine.
"Lucky Man" contains some bombastic rock for all it’s worth. With some pretty cool vocals over the top of it. Paul Coelho comes recommended for this one track - Skope Music.
