Paul has been hooked on music since he heard ‘Help!’ by The Beatles at the age of five. However, he only started singing in public a few years ago, following a game of 'Sing or Strip' at his local pub (don’t ask). Early in 2005 he was introduced to The Royal Harmonics a cappella chorus, and in May that year found himself on stage at the British Association of Barbershop Singers’ annual convention in Brighton.

In mid-2006, the opportunity arose to form a quartet with three other guys from the chorus, and Meltdown was born. Paul’s ambition is to make great harmonies, keep improving as a singer, and entertain a few people along the way.

Paul was born and brought up in Liverpool, and lives in Cookham, Berkshire. He works for a business research company, and at various points in his career has been a market analyst, managing director and software technical author. Paul’s other interests include Everton F.C., Lundy Island, and creative writing. He also sings pop and rock music now and then with friends in Cookham.
