Cleveland, Ohio-based multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter Paul
Christensen's versatility and wide range of musical tastes have taken him on a far-flung
journey over the past four decades. His ability to play multiple keyboards,
synthesizers, flute and sax as well as to sing enable him to slip
into many different situations and build lasting professional relationships. His
love for communicating with others through music has not diminished over the

years but grown only stronger through his experimentation and experiences with
a diversity of styles.

Paul Wolf Christensen's musical odyssey began in Queens, New York where he
was born. He dove into music in elementary school with piano and clarinet, later
adding flute, saxophones and various keyboards to his arsenal of music-making
tools. He took the middle name Wolf to honor his maternal grandfather.

"My grandfather was a gifted concert violinist educated at the Vienna
Conservatory of Music and had a huge influence on me growing up," he says. "He lived
with us for many years so we always had classical music playing in the house.
Having two sisters and a brother that were all musical, we spent time singing
around the piano in four-part harmony, while my mom accompanied us. My
grandfather would entertain guests by playing the violin with my mom on piano, and
when he played it seemed like time stood still. There was seldom a dry eye in
the house. I got a good background in classical music at a very young age."
