Paul Eliot was born in a small log cabin in Brooklyn. His early life was shaped by humble beginnings - his mother worked in an office, and his father drove a truck. School wasn’t his strong suit, so he turned to music, drawn by a restless spirit and a need to create. He immersed himself in the foundations of songwriting - Blues, Country, Rock, Folk, and a few other styles he prefers not to name.
Eventually, Paul moved to San Francisco, where he sang on the streets, mostly at night, to wandering strollers and passing strangers. He performed wherever he could - libraries, donut shops, and even became a regular at John’s Soup Kitchen in Berkeley.
One day, a headline in the window of a shuttered storefront stopped him in his tracks: Music Booming in N.Y.C. That was all he needed. He caught a Greyhound bus east, arriving in a freezing New York City, where he picked up street singing again - this time in Greenwich Village. For six years, Paul worked the open mic scene, playing only his own songs - never covers - and scraping by on little more than passion.
The years flew by like pages torn from a calendar, but Paul never stopped writing, never stopped performing, and never stopped chasing the truth in a song. Then the team at Golden Robot Records came along and opened their doors.
No trite lyrics. Nothing disposable. Just the kind of songs that get under your skin, sung in a voice you won’t forget.
