Paul Pacifico

Originally from London, England, Paul Pacifico grew up in a musical family being taught the violin by his grandfather from the age of 3, he then started learning the alto saxophone from the age of 13 and picked up a blues harmonica at the age of 15 which became his main instrument. He played harmonica in bands throughout his university years, but decided against becoming a musician straight after graduation. Instead, he spent almost 10 years working first in banking in the City of London and then strategy consultancy before embarking on a career in the music industry.
