All Genres > Pop > British Pop > PAUL BRUBAKER: ...and the pursuit of happiness

"Brubaker clearly knows what he's doing, filling this album with tuneful and thought provoking songs. Tracks like 'The Conveyor Belt and 'Hold Back The Rain' have abundant power pop energy, while 'The Hard Way' and 'Spacewalking' are more pensive, and the imaginatively arranged 'Coincide' is a successful attempt at Burt Bacharach-like sophistocation." -Jay Lustig, Pop Music Critic, The Newark Star-Ledger

"...and the pursuit of happiness is a solid collection of power pop tunes by a versatile stylish musician." - Laura Turner Lynch, Kweevak.com

"Brubaker has managed to amass a loyal college age following for his pop/rock mastery.  Think the Barenaked Ladies met Elvis Costello who met They Might Be Giants and they all got drunk with Weezer.  It's infectious pop/rock in all its glory." - Evan Toth, WFDU, Fairleigh-Dickenson University 


At a benefit concert at Fordham University, Natalie Merchant pulled him on stage to share a vocal.
Now Paul Brubaker has a stage of his own to showcase his own brand of intellectual pop-rock.

His backhandedly romantic style gives a nod to Ben Folds, Weezer, and Elvis Costello. But don't write Brubaker off as an inmitator though.His unique tunes have been featured in three BMI showcases, and two NACA showcases.
