A New Jersey native and current denizen of Washington, D.C., Paul Fidalgo hopes his sounds will reach beyond the walls of his Facebook page, as he releases his musical material out into the wild for ego validation on a wide scale.
Assembled from a wide range of influences from Ben Folds to the Postal Service, from They Might Be Giants to Toad the Wet Sprocket, the music of Paul Fidalgo and the Conflict of Interest is irreverent and quirky, with a major emphasis on melody and hooks - in other words, pleasure for the temporal lobe.
Paul's first album, Paul is Making Me Nervous was released independently in 2004, and took the Shakespeare-watching college girl audience by storm. Since then, two EPs, Evidence of Absence and Jut have been released online, and a second full-length album project is in the works.
Paul is an unsigned artist, but he has a pen handy just in case.

hey my friend saw your profile and thinks you look hot! she is new to myspace but wants to chat with you on msn messenger her name on there is emily22sugar@hotmail.com
HELL YEAH I USED YOUR SONG!! Paul fidalgo rocks. I wanted to put up '500 Years', but it wasn't an option. i've gone between 'stabbed in the Throat' and 'Running Gag', I though the former matched my sword layout better.
P-Fi! Hey, Paul, this place isn't the same without you. How's Jess? School? Work? When are you coming to town? Do I sound impatient? I sound impatient. So I guess in an effort to be cool (like I totally am), I'm gonna lean back and cock my head back atcha and just say.....'sup?
Hiya :D ~ And I call myself a 'Communications' major XP ... I don't make the Time, often enough, to tell you that I found you on this silly social-networking application for a specific reason:: You are someone in my Life who I remember, I appreciate, and therefore care about on some level.
I am glad that you are still in the world, that I have connected again with you, even in as small a way as "Friend"ing you, and you should know that just 'cause I'm a dumbass who doesn't always respond to msgs, email, comments, wall posts, and more....
Having you listed as one of my friends does still have meaning to me, even if it's only an electronic representation of the person I met, and who I still care enough about to find.
I hope that Life is treating you well... and if it isn't, kick it in the shins and let it know who's boss!!! ;D Best wishes to you in this new year of Life - and beyond.
Cheers to every moment each of us make Time for in Life. ~Molly~
