Michael Paulo News

Aloha All, 

Right now you can check out “Blink of an Eye,” produced by my friend Paul Brown and featuring my first single release on the tenor sax!

Thanks for the nice comment from a jazz radio programmer who knew me from my “One Passion Days.”

“This song is freakin’ gorgeous!! Do you have any idea what a joy it is to get a song that has melody, emotion and such beautiful sax tone and texture in the middle of a glut of releases that are ‘toe tapping infectuous grooves’ and sound almost AI generated. It kinda reminds me of ‘Mason’s House,’ one of my faves by U.”

Join me in celebrating my new album, “Here is Happiness!” 

It’s a tribute to my dad, Rene Paulo, with beautiful renderings of the songs that made him known as “Hawaii’s Favorite and Most Famous Pianist.” 

Get your copy when “Here is Happiness” is released September 6, 2024 on Woodward Avenue Records (woodward avenue records.com).

It was an emotional experience remembering and celebration my dad’s legacy. A very big mahalo to all who helped me produce the record with your donations.

I will be performing live more this year, as my dad’s passing has inspired me to get out more and play and share the gift of music that he gave me with you.

Hope to see you all at my 19th annual Temecula Wine & Music Festival on Saturday July13th . With 12 international recording artists performing including myself we also raise money for local charities and benefit the community . Rhythm on the Vine starts July 21 thru September 29th, 2024. Check me out at Jazz on the Plazz in Los Gatos on July 24th.

And pick up a copy of the August/September issue of Smooth Jazz News Magazine, also available online. You can read a feature story about my life, my passion for music and my upcoming dates!

Life is short. Do what you enjoy and spread love to the world.

Mahalo for your support ,
