hello, my name is paul. my mother taught me piano at 7 and since then i have been caught by the music bug and have become an avid musician/songwriter. i'm now 31 years old and i feel i have finally matured into the kind of musician i have always wished to become. while knowing, i have so much more to learn!

using my influences from tool to seal and just my life on this planet i try to bring an interesting brand of acoustic music to your ears. always being in bands and never branching out to show the world what i have to offer as a solo artist i now have that freedom. i am currently in the studio working on me debut EP. i'll be releasing it in summer 2009 with the help of the master of sound dave filburn, who is engineering, producing, and performing all the drum tracks. my brother mark mauer is lending his bass skills to the album along with many other friends touching it with their collective talents.

some of the music you are hearing is a collection of home recordings from 2005 to current some featured on a 9 track self produced album entitled "used thoughts". it's available to purchase the tracks on my snocap account here and at myspace.

in closing, my hope, and partly my reason for making music is for some part of me to live on and echo through the years. i make music to enjoy, to challenge, and to maybe, just maybe inspire someone else to do the same. i hope you enjoy what you hear?


thank u & be well.
