Paul Wassif – Looking Up Feeling Down

Paul Wassif – Looking Up Feeling Down

Paul Wassif’s debut album, ‘Looking Up Feeling Down’ is out now on iTunes.. The album is a collection of self penned songs and reworked traditional classics, distinguished by Paul’s inspiring and versatile guitar work, be it finger picking, slide or electric. The album features guest appearances from Bert Jansch and Eric Clapton, performing together for the first time, and also features Evan Jenkins, The Watson Brothers, Robin Clayton, Steve Counsel, Seamus Beaghen and Lynn Glaser.
Born in Bristol, England, Paul’s early career in Punk/Rock band The London Cowboys, followed by various stints in NY bands with New York Dolls members Jerry Nolan and Sylvain Sylvain, could not be more different in style and substance to the melodic country/blues that now identifies Paul’s music.
Paul has also collaborated on Bert Jansch’s two latest albums; Edge of A Dream, in a sparkling guitar duet on the track ‘Black Cat Blues’, featured on the soundtrack of ‘Calendar Girls’ and on the highly acclaimed album The Black Swan, Paul performed on three tracks and co-wrote one track.
