Event Description
A LITTLE ABOUT PAUL FILEK
The diversity that is Paul Filek extends itself far beyond his Canadian Idol debut.
Never to miss an opportunity to play his music live, this hardworking and passionate 27 year-old musician has proven himself as more than just another pretty face with fantastic hair products.
In the past five years, Paul Filek has marked his place on the map of up-and-coming stars and has only just begun to break the surface of talent that lies within.
Paul is the youngest of six boys and comes from a long line of aspiring musicians. Paul began writing and playing music as a joke at parties. This joke quickly turned into a passion realized and there was no stopping him from this point on. True to his night-owl tendencies, Paul found himself creating songs into all hours of the early morning. His guitar has led the way and although his roommates have paid the price, these late night sessions have led Paul to his new found mentor and friend; producer Henry Small ( Prism, The Guess Who, Entwistle). Together they have produced two critically acclaimed albums: Honest Songs from a Dishonest Heart and his sophomore effort Good to Meet You. Both albums deliver his soulful voice and creative lyrics speaking of truth, love and life.
Paul is a born performer. A self-proclaimed addict to the high of the live performance, Paul's audiences are guaranteed a great show the minute he takes the stage. Once performing, Paul's voice transcends and his songs are delivered from a place of passion and unquestionable authenticity. Not to mention his wicked sense of humour!
