Paul Greene is an Australian musician whose artistry defies categorisation, seamlessly traversing a diverse array of genres while carving out a unique identity all of his own. With influences ranging from the storytelling prowess of Randy Newman to the eclectic groove of Prince, Greene's musical journey is as unpredictable as it is captivating. His soon to be released album, "Get Loved”, finds a stylistic home in country music, but it is far from the clichéd commercial sound often associated with the genre. Instead, Greene's work embodies the essence of Australia, evoking the earthy aroma of eucalyptus and the warmth of a campfire beneath clear, starry skies.

 

A long-time admirer of Lonnie Donnegan, Greene's music also carries the unmistakable influence of skiffle, adding a distinctive flair to his new songs. The album's first single, "Time and Time”, is a poignant reflection on the pressing issue of men's mental health and the alarming rates of suicide in Australia. With heartfelt, honest and direct lyrics and a compelling melody, the song addresses the societal stigma surrounding vulnerability, particularly amongst men. 

 

Greene emphasises the importance of open dialogue, stating, "Blokes find it hard to talk. Vulnerability is not something most men are encouraged to embrace, and it can lead to dangerous outcomes. This song aims to offer a positive and uplifting perspective on navigating tough times."

 

Through his music, Paul Greene not only takes his songwriting to a new level, but showcases his remarkable talent whilst striving to spark conversations about mental health and emotional well-being, making him a vital voice in the Australian music scene.
