Biography

Paul Piano

Piano and Vocals

Paul first came to public attention as the winner of the 1987 Regional Heat of the Yamaha Electone Organ Festival and made it all the way the grand final at Leeds Town Hall.

His first professional venture was to form the duo ‘The two of us’ with the outstanding vocalist and guitarist David Hughes. They toured throughout the UK and Europe for three years with successful residencies in The Café Royal Ibiza and the Carousel Club Portugal.

Paul had a stint as a Butlins’ redcoat which he found to be a great training ground for a young entertainer and which really suited his outgoing, friendly manner.

His passion for acting saw him join the Liverpool Theatre School where he gained his equity card. On leaving he was represented by A.R.T Management and enjoyed TV and Film performances including Brookside, Bread and Coronation Street plus appearing alongside Robert Carlyle in the film ‘Priest’. He went on to form his own theatre company called Tenacity which staged numerous plays and theatre in education productions.

Paul has worked extensively throughout the UK over the past few years and enjoyed playing as a solo keyboard vocalist and with many bands.

In 2004 Paul trained at Goldsmith College as a music teacher and in 2005 he was very proud to gain The Graduate Diploma in Teaching Music.

His passion is for playing the piano and his music is ideal for weddings, Bar-mitzvahs, birthday parties, dinner parties and cocktail parties.
