About Me

My name is Paul and I'm 32 years old.
I'm a proud husband and father,
I play the bass guitar in a band called Brown Feather Sparrow ( Official Site / MySpace ),
and bookkeeper.
I like to record music, building on an idea, beginning with piano guitar most of the time, then adding other parts, being surprised where it ends up.
My songs could be described as:
-Music for walking the stairs waiting on the elevator;
-Music for the widow who spills tears in her soup;
-Music for daydreamers those who can't sleep at night;
-Music for travelling;
-Music to calm you down while being stuck in a traffic jam at midnight;
-Music from the house on the hill;
-Music you find on your artistic uncle's attic;
-Music to listen while you're watching winterbirds.
-Moodmelodies.
-Music to walk along the beach to on a dark and cloudy day.
(Thanks to Myrrhe and Brown Bird for some of these descriptions).
I kinda 'edited' my profile with a giant hammer.
