About Me


Paul Weller has epitomised different aspects of pop culture over the years. To anyone with an eye for the Mod cloth, he has been a fashion icon. To thirty-something fans of The Jam, he fronted the most exciting and vital band since the 1960s (or ever, for that matter). Paul Weller has earned the nickname of the Modfather, a term which reflects his near - lifetime passion for the Sixties cult which has infused aspects of his image and his music. The Jam were Mod, in the very English sense of mid - Sixties, The Who or The Kinks. The Style Council were Mod in the very cosmopolitan sense of modern jazz. Paul Weller solo is Mod in the sense of a post - Acid Jazz groove and a late Sixties Small Faces vibe. He has come to symbolise a very British style of rock which transcends age and easy classification. Paul Weller’s thirty year career presents an unusual scenario. By his own admission, he continues to emulate his musical heroes, a mixture of Sixties (Mod) icons - Steve Marriott, Pete Townsend, Ray Davis, and soul legends Marvin Gaye and Curtis Mayfield. Along with best friend Steve "whitey" white who has been behind the kit since 1984.
