Paul Christian

Blending a distinctly Midwestern strain of Americana with power pop melodicism, Paul Christian is a singer/songwriter based in the Chicago area. Despite playing in bands in his younger years, he didn't make his solo debut until later in life, pouring decades of quality songwriting into 2018's American Dream and his 2020 follow-up, That's Everything. Born in Berwyn, Illinois, Christian bounced around various parts of Chicagoland in his youth, growing up in suburbs like Brookfield and Arlington Heights. As a rock-obsessed teenager, he began teaching himself guitar and other instruments, learning the ropes from '70s titans like Led Zeppelin and Rush. Like many talented musicians, stints in a handful of local rock bands and a knack for crafty songwriting eventually took a back seat to marriage and family. Over the years, Christian continued to nurture his craft in private, keeping a healthy notebook of song ideas and growing as a writer. By the time his kids were grown, he'd built up a significant backlog of songs that slotted somewhere between rugged Americana, folk-rock, and classic Beatlesque guitar pop. In 2018, with the help of Illinois-based label and publishing company Salvatori Productions, Christian released his debut album, American Dream, to a strong reception. Building on his momentum and with plenty of new songs to spare, he followed it two years later with That's Everything.
