PAUL BRILL

Paul Brill

"One of the most sophisticated, yet subtle, indie songwriters around..." -CMJ

"Stunning..." **** -Paste

Singer-songwriter Paul Brill's latest recording, 2007's HARPOONER, along with his original compositions for several acclaimed films, TV series and commercials, and even an NPR theme show that youthful adventures as an herbal smokes salesman, street performer, valet, corporate errand boy, and even a marine biology instructor can serve the creative spirit well. Paul's original score for the award-winning HBO feature documentary, The Trials of Darryl Hunt, was hailed by Variety as "memorably chilling, sounding notes of purest dread." Young American Recordings recently released the official soundtrack to Hunt, curated by Brill, featuring selections from his score and contributions by Andrew Bird, Califone, M. Ward, Mark Kozelek and Dead Prez, among others. Rather than focus on crossing artistic boundaries, Brill writes as if they never existed in the first place. With a talent for storytelling and adventurous melodies, HARPOONER is a dismantled pop statement, on which Brill collages found sounds, jigsaw beats, and damaged vocals into a distinctive and cohesive collection of songs.
