About the Artist
Somewhere between the minimalist landscape and the world of psyche folk lies the musical territory of Gregory Paul. As a singer, guitarist/songwriter and composer working to create a hybrid of sound, Paul has emerged as a craftsman with a foundation in hypnotic, emotionally fueled atmospheres. Gregory has released four albums to date, most recently with the Autumdivers, and has toured throughout the US sharing the stage with such artists as The Moody Blues, Lulliby For The Working Class, His Name Is Alive, Blue Oyster Cult, Chris Whitley, Josh Rouse, St. Low, Poor Rich One's, Catherine Wheel, Medicine, and many more. As the musical experience evolves, GP aims to push the boundaries of experimentation with a multi-genre palette of acid folk, dream pop, ambient Americana, improvisation, hypnotic rock, and world music.

Product Description
Somewhere between the minimalist landscape and the world of psyche folk lies the musical territory of Gregory Paul. As a singer, guitarist/songwriter and composer working to create a hybrid of sound, Paul has emerged as a craftsman in hypnotic, emotionally fueled atmospheres. In addition to fronting New York's cosmic American rock band, the Autumdivers, Gregory Paul has an evolving solo career, as evidenced in his new solo release "Awake From the Flash". With the album, Paul aims to push the boundaries of experimentation with a multi-genre palette of acid folk, dream pop and improvisation among others. The title song "Awake From the Flash" is an experiment in "epic" form. Here Paul combines elements of song writing and story telling along with improvisation, finger picking and ambient music. Paul went back through five years of journals to assemble words merging a poetic stream of consciousness lyric that runs along and correlates with the current of sound. "There's an element of truth and sincerity that's revealed in that process, no matter what the art form." said Paul while working on the new album, "I sort of let this build and guide itself, and I think there's something to be said about following your intuition." Other highlights from the album include a stinging version of "A Walking Fire" and a beautiful stripped down rendition of the Autumdivers' hit "I Still Feel." Gregory Paul has released four albums to date, including two with the Autumdivers, and has toured extensively throughout the US.

5 out of 5 stars Extraordinary Album.......2007-01-04

Awake from the Flash is spirit-charged and awe-inspiring. Songs like "I still Feel", "Awake From the Flash" and "Burn fast Burn Bright" are particularly stunning. Greg Paul's raw acoustic sound resonates with the truth in that his lyrics are constantly unraveling with each listen.
