Paul grew up in the south-west of Germany in a musical family. His parents being professional classical musicians, he'd been in touch with music at a young age and took classical piano lessons during his childhood. Later he discovered jazz and its related styles for himself and started learning the Saxophone when he was 11. After graduating from school he went on studying Jazz Saxophone at the university of music and performing arts Mannheim, where he took lessons with Jürgen Seefelder. During this period he played a lot with the 'New Funk', or 'Powerfunk', band FATCAT that performed at countless clubs and festivals such as the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival (CH) in 2017 and shared stages with names like Chaka Khan, Jamie Cullum or Anastacia. In the context of his studies, Paul gathered years of experience with the Mannheim Jazz Orchestra which featured guests like Thomas Gansch, Bert Joris and Karsten Gorzel. In 2017 Paul was given a scholarship by the DAAD and went to study at the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA) in Brazil for a semester. There he formed the duo 'Brazulka' with guitarist and composer Tarcísio Santos, but also became part of the Latin-Jazz band 'Flowin Tension' by German drummer Christoph Müller. In 2018, back in Germany, Paul founded his first solo project 'Silk & Steel', a large ensemble featuring a string quartet and released his first own album in May 2019. In 2020, he moved to Berlin to pursue his Master degree in composition at the Jazz institute.
