Paul Clarke is a seasoned American singer-songwriter whose musical journey spans over five decades. Inspired by The Beatles' historic Ed Sullivan Show appearance in February 1964, Clarke transitioned from drums to guitar, embarking on a path that would define his artistic career.

His diverse musical style blends folk, theater, and pop elements, with subtle influences of jazz and Bossa nova. Clarke's artistic canvas extends from New York City's streets and subways to intimate classroom performances, where his commitment to musical education shines through initiatives like RADIO 50, a school radio show he created for student performances.

Clarke's compositions have earned notable recognition, including an honorable mention from The World Peace Society for "May Peace Prevail." His song "Build a Bridge" became the unofficial anthem of MS75. His versatility as a composer is evident in his works for various occasions, from sacred church services to personal celebrations.

Throughout his career, Clarke has collaborated with a wide spectrum of performers, from homeless individuals to students and family members. A contemplative artist at heart, he often finds inspiration in nature, particularly while singing by the ocean. His extensive catalogue reflects what he calls "the myriad moments of mystery and beauty" that give life its meaning.

As Clarke continues to create and perform, he remains grateful for what he considers "the gift of song," using his music to build bridges between communities and touch hearts across generations.
