About Me

The WHOLE ALBUM is NOW exclusively available at iTunes in advance of the release dates! Click here to check it out:
AND whats more, to celebrate the release of 'Based on a True Story', you can now download 'Walking on Eggshells' at a much cheaper price from Amiestreet.com - in true Web 2.0 style, the price is determined by demand, so get in there quick before the price goes up...its already started to rise...
Its not often that a music industry legend comes out of comfortable retirement to help the career of an artist. This is exactly what happened when music guru Gerry Bron heard Paddy perform.
Screenshots from the video to 'Bob (Based on a True Story)'INDIE-PIANO SKA, INDIE-PIANO BOOGIE, INDIE-PIANO ROCK...there are so many words that could be used to describe the music, but just have a listen and you'll hear the diverse sounds are all linked by Paddy's instantly identifiable piano playing, voice songs and arrangements.In the year following his graduation from Kings College with a music degree, Paddy was introduced to Gerry Bron, signed a deal with Bronze Records and recorded the highly original album 'WALKING ON EGGSHELLS' [GBRCD1001]. This, his second album was recorded mainly at Gallery Studios with encouragement from the studio's owner and Roxy Music guitarist Phil Manzanera. Taken from the album, the first single 'UNSQUARE DANCE' [GBRSD1001] is a riotous and truly original arrangement of Dave Brubeck's classic, and has received accolades all around. Brubeck himself said, 'I love it wouldn't change a note'. The video to the second single 'YOU THINK YOU"RE SO DAMN FUNNY' [GBRCD1003] got good coverage on French and German T.V., helping to propel the album to the No.1 bestselling Jazz/Blues album in France in May 2005
. As well as Paddy's songs and arrangements, the album features five songs co-written with iconic lyricist Pete Brown, most well known for his collaborations with Cream. You can play and buy 'Walking On Eggshells' is on this player:
Look out for the new album 'BASED ON A TRUE STORY', in 2007. Recorded in Denmark and London, mixed in Italy it was a truly international affair and the album is Paddy's best yet...
