AV Presents – An Evening with Joshua Paul

Joshua Paul is a Southern Oregon native born and raised. His first musical memory was of playing his Jaminator and harmonica in front of a local grocery store at the age of four. Joshua spent most of his younger years focussing on school and playing a lot of soccer, and after graduating from George Fox University with a degree in chemistry, he worked in a cataract research lab at OHSU, publishing a paper, as a first author in the international journal titled Experimental Eye Research. He then spent ten years teaching chemistry, among other science subjects, at a few high schools in the Rogue Valley. In his mid twenties he became a part of the Use Your Gift Foundation, a generous organization that pays for the recording of an album for young up-and-coming songwriters/performers. Since then he has also recorded several songs with local producer Jeff Pevar, as well as Bredice Studios in Los Angeles. Joshua now plays music full time and often performs at local wineries, bars, and retirement communities, and he even received an honorable mention for an original song that he submitted to the SongDoor International Songwriting Competition.
