About / Biography

Hi, I'm Paul, I bring 80s pop to life on acoustic guitar with a fresh take on timeless classics.

Enjoy heartfelt, energetic renditions of those fantastic tunes that resonate with audiences of all ages.

From original synth pop, iconic power ballads to the classic floor fillers, I love their essence and emotion of the times and I put my heart and soul into every one.

Its a celebration of the best ever decade of music.

Afterall, who can forget the best years of their lives ? :)

I do 80s pop songs :) I can do any song that can be "imagined" on an acoustic guitar, however, requests made a week or two before the gig are no problem, but requests on the night are not always do-able.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

Has to be my mum and dads 60th anniversary for obvious reasons


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Any artist that had a hit between December 31st 1979 and December 31st 1989 :)


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I have played over 100 gigs in recent years and many more before that going back to, you guessed it, the 1980s!
I now love nothing more than the intimate closeness of acoustic guitar.
And the songs themselves are always the stars of the show.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

Any event where there are people! If there's 2, 20, 200 or more, I give 100% .


Do you do songs other than 80s pop?

Not really. :) I mean, I do, but why would I, right?

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

My set up is small and simple, I have a pa and my guitar and some cables! I normally arrive at least an hour before start time and it takes about twenty minutes max to set up and break down. I normally play for two hours with a short 10 minute break, but am flexible either way.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, I am always happy to play outside, with or without a power supply.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

I work from a set list but can include songs requested before the night as long as I have week or two for preparation, and that they're 80s songs of course :) . Songs requested on the night are possible but not always do-able without the preparation.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Whole-hearted, soulful and very very 80s Pop!
