John Paul is a singer-songwriter from Perthshire Scotland. Having played round Highland Pubs for many years, he started writing his own songs when he was working as a tour guide, finding an outlet for his love of land and place. In 2021 he took part in online songwriting course ‘Bird on A Wire’ run by Findlay Napier and Boo Hewardine and songs sprang forth about water, forest, birds and spirit, threaded by a narrative of the urgent need to re-engage with our place in nature. Over two years these songs were honed into his first album, Overstory, due for release in spring 2025. His first single, "Forest' is due for release on 10 January.
