Paul Cleary

b. 9 Sept 1959, Dublin, Eire. Paul Cleary may be the previous lead vocalist and primary songwriter from the Cutting blades, a Dublin, Eire-based clothing which was touted in the past due 70s and early 80s to be ‘the band probably to’, and something that challenged U2 critically and artistically in those post-punk times. The demise from the Cutting blades in the middle-80s and Cleary’s following music group the Partisans towards the finish of the 10 years, the vocalist’s blanket drawback from your music market (following virtually private stints in Dublin-based pub rings the Wilf Brothers as well as the Cajun Kings), and his total insufficient desire for raking over what-might-have-been, robbed Ireland of the premier songwriting skill. In 2000, nevertheless, he arrived of relative pension to market a 2CD re-release of Cutting blades songs, Those Had been The Days. Curiosity for the record in Ireland and beyond was in a way that Cleary contemplated a go back to live and documenting work, culminating within the discharge in 2001 of his single debut, Crooked City. Even following a distance of nearly 15 years, it had been apparent from the grade of the tracks that Cleary’s skill showed no symptoms of diminishing.
