Danny Sits down with Paul Marzano. Paul is a New Jersey based singer-songwriter who began playing saxophone at age 9 after hearing Henry Mancini's "Pink Panther Theme" and convincing his parents to rent an alto sax from the music program at school. "I played the hell out of that sax until I was 13", says Paul. "Then one day a bell went off in my head and I became obsessed with playing bass guitar and songwriting. Before long I sold my entire baseball card collection and bought a used bass guitar. And the journey began!" By the time Paul was in high school he was playing bass with an original band while writing and performing his music at local venues and cable TV shows.
Soon after, Paul began to focus on acoustic guitar and piano as he further developed his love of songwriting. Over the years Paul has created a vast catalogue of original music and performed at many of New York and New Jersey's notable clubs including The Bitter End, The Stone Pony and CBGB before it's final days.
Paul released a 12 song album entitled "Mood Swing Serenade" in the Summer of 2019. The album can best be described as a musical roller coaster ride with an array of sonic twists and turns. In promoting the album Paul has been featured on several radio stations, including New Jersey 101.5, KCKQ 1180 in Reno, Nevada and WVTK 92.1 FM in Vermont where his songs "Can't Imagine" and "Smile Like Hollywood" were played. In Europe, "Smile Like Hollywood" also received air play and was added to the playlist at FOREST FM in Southern England, while in Germany the song "Breakfast in the UK" was a featured track on TurnUpYourRadio and the "Mark After Dark" show.
Mood Swing Serenade is available on most streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon. To order a copy of the CD "Mood Swing Serenade" please visit Paul's artist page at https://store.cdbaby.com/Artist/PaulMarzano
