   About Paul Jennings
Paul Jennings has long been considered one of Scotland's top percussionists, playing drumset as well as an array of percussion and hand drums including Cajon, Darabuka, Djembe, congas and electronics. He has toured the US more than a dozen times and as part of one US tour Paul performed a three-week run on Broadway in New York City.

In his decade-long career he has traveled the world inspiring audiences with his energetic and engaging performances. Paul's unique style of playing has earned him spots with many of Scotland's top bands and he has now featured on over 30 albums.

In the the past year he has performed to sell out audiences with the Scottish 13-piece super band, The Treacherous Orchestra, completed an acclaimed album with Acoustic/Roots band Findlay Napier and the Bar Room Mountaineers and in 2005 he co-composed and performed a pioneering musical commission for the Celtic Connections festival, Europe's largest winter festival, with fellow percussionist Fraser Stone. Their commission was performed at the festival in 2006 and 2007 and sold out both years running.

As well as touring internationally in over 15 country's, Paul has also received rave reviews for his work from The New York Times, Washington Square News, Canada's Globe and Mail and Chronicle Herald as well as primetime television appearances on ABC's Live with Regis and Kelly, CBC Canada and WNBC New York.

....Jennings can turn anything into music. (The Globe and Mail, Canada)

As one of Scotland's premiere percussionists, Paul Jennings played everything from pots and pans, to spoons and cajon.... an impressive display of rhythm, timing and creativity. (Soo Today, Canada)

At one point Mr. Jennings uses a typewriter as his instrument; at another, spoons, pots and pans. (The New York Times)

Hello there!!!

Hows it going these days?

I hope all is well and good and I just wanted to let you know I've just put up a new track called ECHO so I thought you might want to have a listen. :o)
It's just the instrumental version I did not long ago but I do have a full section of vocal to arrange into this track so I'll keep you posted on the outcome! :o)

I appreciate your time and support and any comments posted.

All the very best, take care.
