Paul Rothwell is a Singer-Songwriter from New York City living in Argentina.

​

Paul started as a drummer studying in the South Jersey area near Philadelphia with Ray Nunzi, performing in percussion ensembles with his childhood friend and local great Bob Shomo. 

After a brief stint on the road Paul returned to South Jersey and spent a couple of years teaching and playing before leaving to attend the Jazz Studies Program at William Paterson College (now University) directed by Rufus Reid. While there he had the good fortune to not only study with such greats as Rufus, Joe Lavano, Eliot Zigmund, Dave Samuels and others, but to also learn from, and be inspired by, many of his extraordinarily talented fellow students. 

He then studied Literature and Cultural History and received a B.A. before settling in New York City to continue developing his craft as a singer-songwriter. After ten years in NYC performing in small venues Paul moved to Buenos Aires where he recorded and performed while working as a consultant. He has recorded three albums and one EP (featuring Mick Rossi and Johnnie Valentino) with Javier Fraccione at Kamestudio Buenos Aires.

His fourth album, There and Back, was recorded live at Vibromonk Studio in Brooklyn, New York with Mick Rossi (Paul Simon, Sting, Phillip Glass, Hall and Oates), Van Romaine (Steve Morse, Billy Joel, Enrique Iglesias), C.J. Camerieri (Paul Simon, Sting, Rufus Wainwright, David Byrne, Sean Lennon), Erik Della Penna (Natalie Merchant, Kill Henry Sugar), Michael Bates (Mick Rossi, Big Lazy, Northern Spy). Recorded by Dean Sharenow (Sting, Joan Baez, Kill Henry Sugar, Big Lazy). Javi and Paul put on the finishing touches at Kamestudio upon their return.

Paul lives with his family in Patagonia, Argentina.
