2003 saw Paul determined to add to his musical portfolio further still by learning to play drums, “frustrated with programming drum machines and drummers it looked like it would just be easier to learn to play the drums myself and at least try to get them to a level better than I could program”. This resulted in several years enjoying the learning curve of a new instrument, he adds “Its always been about guitar, bass and drums, the love of playing bass never left I just needed to add playing drums to my CV”.  A love of home studio recording over the last decade has continued to inspire him to pursue these instruments with passion, and try to achieve the freedom that multi-instrumentalists seem to have in their work. Now its guitar bass and drums and a desire to be respected on each that drives him.

Paul's latest CD 'Dead Crooner' represents the first time he has recorded guitar bass and drums with the intention of completing a final CD and not just a demo, and he is very proud of the fact that he gets to play everything himself
