The Artist
Rainy-day lo-fi, holiday soul, ambient R&B.
Paul Neil writes and records guitar-forward music that sits somewhere between a late-night drive and a Sunday morning: lo-fi grooves, thick harmony and solos that say something.

The story
The first EP, It's Always Cloudy in Nashville, came out of Paul's years at Tennessee State University, where he studied Commercial Music and got his start in the industry alongside nonprofits like Notes for Notes and Music 4 LIFE.
Since then the catalog has grown into holiday soul, a duet with his wife Tia Simone, collaborations with DeAnte Hillman and DP, and features on records by other Atlanta and Nashville artists. Guitar is always the voice at the center.
Press
“Paul Neil delivers a fresh and dynamic performance that captivates the audience.”
“Although the song is entitled “Apathy,” I never once felt apathetic while listening to it. Harmonies were thick and supportive, while the melodies and solos were exciting and well-spoken.”
