“It’s been really, really overwhelming, but at the same time, really exciting. A lot of things are coming up and it’s very motivating.”
Paolo finds joy in storytelling. Writing lyrics—allowing his listeners to indulge in different perspectives and stories—is what he loves most about being a musician.Paolo finds joy in storytelling.

“Purple Afternoon” was a special case, though. According to Paolo, he did it in under 20 minutes as the ideas just kept on flowing freely. The song is about throwing grand gestures out the window and realizing that the small, mundane moments throughout your day can be precious too if spent with the right person.
Apart from putting your name out there, establishing your identity as a musician comes off as a big challenge for artists. Most of them get baited to follow industry trends, hoping to gain an easy headstart. Thankfully, Paolo has a clear vision of the kind of music he wants to share with people: tracks with honest lyrics and dabbling in diverse genres. Knowing this helps him stay true to his identity.
As per Paolo, “Hide and Seek” is arguably the closest he has been to the sound he wants to move forward with. It has the vibe of those relaxing ’80s songs most local FM radios play on Sunday mornings.
