Paul Demer's warm and lyrical style is reminiscent of the 1970s sensitive-songwriter tradition. Through careful song crafting and inclusive stage presence Paul connects with diverse audiences in homes, bars, churches, and hospitals. His latest album "I'm Glad You're Still Around" has been celebrated for its storytelling and subtle production. Paul plans to record and release a new EP in the summer of 2020. Weaving autobiography with the stories of others, “On the Way Back Down” expands on the empathetic themes present in “I’m Glad You’re Still Around.” Paul hopes that his music might build bridges in these divided times.
