Paul James Project's poignant new single ‘Speak To Me In Silence’ captures the bittersweet essence of grief and growth.

Rising singer-songwriter Paul James, who goes under the moniker Paul James Project, invites us to embrace quiet reflection with his poignant new single, ‘Speak To Me In Silence’. Produced by Grammy-nominated Chris Potter, known for his work with The Verve and The Rolling Stones, the track serves as a time capsule of grief and the bittersweet moments that arise as life rushes by.

 

In this deeply emotional song, Paul shares his personal journey: “When you’re a kid, your dad can seem like a giant. It’s heartbreaking to see them get sick and have those roles reversed.” This narrative encapsulates the conflicting emotions of loss while honouring the magic of his father’s impact on his life. The song intertwines lush guitars and bass with Paul’s raw, emotive vocals, establishing a sound reminiscent of artists like Lewis Capaldi and Ed Sheeran.

 

Having gained recognition from industry icons, including Coldplay’s Will Champion, Paul’s journey is marked by collaborations with seasoned musicians like Billy Lawrie. With over 100 radio plays in the UK and a debut album, Book of Memories, set for release this autumn, Paul James is poised for a breakthrough year in 2025.
