Paul Jones

Hey Everyone, thanks for visiting my page. I'm a saxophonist living in Boston, MA by way of New Hampshire and Maryland. I recently finished touring with Eli "Paperboy" Reed and The True Loves to pursue my own musical aspirations. With Eli and the True Loves I toured much of the continental US and Europe. Before my time with Eli and the Loves, I attended Berklee College of Music. I graduated with a degree in Music Performance, Magna Cum Laude. I studied with many great musicians there, some in particular were Hal Crook, George Garzone, Ed Tomassi, Dino Govoni, Shannon LeClaire, Jim Odgren, and Dave Santoro. Just before my last year at Berklee, I worked on Norwegian Cruise lines. I got to see way more of Alaska than I ever anticipated. While on the cruise ship, I worked with Rosie O'Donnell, Audra McDonald, and various other Broadway stars. For a sort while, I attended Keene State College in New Hampshire. While there, I got pointed in the direction of local Jazz hero Scott Mullett. Scott was and is a huge motivator in my music career. During my high school years, I attended the Vermont Jazz Center and Maine State Jazz Camp. At these programs I was lucky enough to study with Tony Malaby, Bill McHenry, Donny McCaslin, Pete Yellin, and Vardan Ovespian. As for what's to come in my musical endeavors, I will be attending Manhattan School of Music in the fall. Thanks for visiting.
