From his traditional beginnings to the indie sound he's crafted, Paul's artistry is a testament to the resilience and creativity it takes to forge one's path in the music industry. His candid tales include a chance meeting with Johnny Marr of The Smiths, revealing the layers of influence that have shaped his sound and the freedom he cherishes as an independent artist under a London-based label that supports without constraining.
