There has been no overnight success for Mr. Paul Greene. He is living proof that it is hard work being lucky.

Rather than fast tracking to fame by Australian Idol or whatever other media junket is giving hopefuls a chance to sell their soul. For Greene it has been a long, slow, steady progression that has seen him become the respected musician he is today, and earned him the mantle of ‘Australia’s Hardest Working Musician’, as well as a legion of loyal fans and supporters.

The road less travelled has had riches of its own and lead Greene on a musical rollercoaster: from bar brawls in the back of no-where, to the Enmore Theatre and major festivals; community radio everywhere, to artist of the week on ABC Radio National and Nova 969.

Somehow, before he could say ‘maybe-I-should-get-a-day-job’, Greene was booked in to produce a hand full of records, including James Blundell’s Golden Guitar nominated album ‘Woolshed Creek’. Not long after this, he was approached to front Australian Pub Rock icons Spy V Spy (who happen to be his childhood musical heroes), as well as co-writing with a host of artists including Australian Idol runner up Luke Dickens, Wendy Mathews, Amber Lawrence and a host of others. He started a bunch of side projects, including a punk band and a project deciphering ancient mantras.
