Paul Jost Quartet

Paul Jost Quartet

A creative force that deserves to be added to the list of great male jazz vocalists of all time.“ – Jazz in Europe Magazine

“Paul Jost has proven to be one of the most enthralling and soulful voices in jazz today“ – L.A. Jazz Scene

“Paul Jost makes every song so personally his own that it‘s easy to forget anyone else ever sang them.“ – All About Jazz

When describing the unique vocalist and arranger Paul Jost, two words come to mind: “passionate storyteller”. To Paul, each lyric offers a message, a story, and he conveys his own interpretation of those stories through his arrangements and the honesty in his performance. Paul is a multi-instrumentalist, composer and arranger whose vocal style makes him a standout. Both critics and contemporaries alike say he is one of the best male jazz vocalists since Mark Murphy

After a long career as an instrumentalist and sideman having recorded and performed with Billy Eckstine, Mark Murphy, Dr. John, Bucky Pizzarelli, Joe Farrell, and Ron Carter to name just a few, Paul launched his solo vocal career in 2015 with the release of his debut vocal album “Breaking Through”.

Paul is a prolific composer, writing over 40 CD’s for major music libraries and his music is heard daily in over 750 markets throughout the United States. He has composed for Canon Pictures and NBC-TV’s Emmy Award-winning series “Special Treat”. He is also a four category Billboard Song Contest winner.
