The artist
Soulful voice. Timeless songs.
"Paul is the act you book when you want real singing and songs everyone knows."
A Belfast-based acoustic singer and guitarist, Paul builds his sets around soul, pop and singer-songwriter classics — Bill Withers, David Gray, Van Morrison and plenty more — delivered with an easy warmth that suits any room.
From wedding drinks receptions and corporate evenings to private parties and bar residencies across Northern Ireland, he reads the crowd and paces the night: relaxed and melodic early on, lifting into singalongs as the room fills.
Honest vocals, tasteful playing and zero fuss — a safe, seriously good pair of hands for any event.
