“Paul Winn Band has captured the elegance of poetry through music. This is
songwriting at its best.” - Nicole Volpicelli (Circle Magazine)
“It’s refreshing to hear that what I believe to be the most important element in popular music i.e. melody, never gives way to fancy production, self-indulgent arrangements or muso’s showing off. This album simply delivers great songs performed honestly and beautifully.”
“If you want an alternative to the Alex Lloyd’s and Pete Murray’s of the current Aussie music scene I encourage you to check out this debut album from an artist that you will definitely be hearing more from.”
- Anton Hagop (Record Producer/Engineer - Silverchair, Powderfinger, Missy Higgins)

Indie music review
author: Todd Beemis
This is a record with the self-confidence to swear off a producer's bells and whistles and to lovingly embrace songsmithing and, above all, melody.

review by nicole volpicelli
author: circle magazine
Such a "fortunate man" to have such mysterious appeal, Paul Winn is a three piece band of Aussies, with poetic vibes such as "together we were just a reflection of the world/ often beautiful but never perfect" ("Reflection"). No one can deny that these musicians also maintain an air of Thoreau in their lyrics. This is songwriting at its best; Winn's song "Taylor" reminds me of a track off Jack Johnson's debut CD, the same song about the same introspect of the love that peaked years ago. The same message is scrawled at the end of the song, "Too busy wishing for tomorrow/ as the world and time spins away".
Paul Winn has captured the elegance of poetry through music. The always ominous, and sometimes pessimistic words used in their songs are adjacent to Jim Carroll's poetic technique. In fact, these words could be spoken out of the same mouth.

I absolutely love and adore the CD
author: chris
I absolutely love and adore the CD. It was spinning daily in the car for about two weeks
My fav. songs, and the disc is upstairs in my collection now, but from memory were track 4 "I'm Sinking Down"...........I love that kind of music - sounds a little David Bridie, but full of atmosphere and space. And track one, love the guitar playing, does sound a tad Sting, but that is a good thing in my books. It is catchy and the feel is great. Fortunate Man has some interesting little rhythmic things happening in the interludes and intro. That track really builds and sounds like a great power ballad.

Super smooth pop music
author: BabySue
Australia's Paul Winn writes and records super smooth pop that is surprisingly professional and accessible. This self-produced album features ten original tracks that feature Winn's subtle, soothing vocals and arrangements that support the melodies. The band on this album consists of Paul Winn (vocals, guitars, piano), Simon Fishburn (drums), and Matt Keegan (saxophone). These tunes were mixed with assistance from well-known producer Anton Hagop. Winn's music should please fans of artists on the Vanguard label.
