Biography:
Paul’s musical journey began at the age of 6 when his parents enrolled him into music school for Accordion. Attending classes 4 days a week, the future songwriter was taught music theory, harmony, solfeggio, rhythm and music literature, with regular instrumental classes in accordion, piano, and even vocals. At 15 he began focusing on guitar more than he had before. Quickly making it his instrument of choice, Cafcae went on to write original material, and ended up performing in several bands in Eastern Europe and Canada.
Performing live consistently since 2009, the artist has written a number of songs that would later be re-worked and recorded for the Sophisticated release. The album serves as a memoir of sorts, diversely going through different chapters in his life
With the release of the Sophisticated album, Paul Cafcae seamlessly crosses genres to breed a sound familiar, yet all his own. Laced with addicting progressions, a songwriting style that brings old and new together, and a melodically satisfying vocal approach, the record boasts the aesthetic of indie pop rock anthems.
