You would be hard-pressed to find a musician with a more diverse recorded output than Paul McLaney. In a career spanning over 20 years, the musician has released a remarkable body of work under various guises. Added to this are his collaborations with Anika Moa, SJD, Breaks Co-op, Julia Deans, Concord Dawn, Counterstrike, Fly My Pretties, Jeff Boyle (Jakob), Proteins of Magic, Magik Johnson, Eden Mulholland, Rhian Sheehan, Maisey Rika and the list goes on...
He’s lost track of how many albums are actually out there, but it's somewhere around the 30 mark. The unifying feature of all his work is that singular voice. “I’ve had everything from Bowie, Bryan Ferry, John Martyn, Chris Isaak, Scott Walker... my only thing about singing is conveying the emotion and doing it in tune...”
At the heart of it all though is the acoustic guitar. “No matter where the song ends up, that's generally where they start; on the guitar. One guitar in particular, one I’ve had since I was 16. I’d say 90% of the songs I’ve written have originated from that instrument.”
Paul McLaney joins us as part of his national tour this April.
