PAUL VARIO: New EP "Dragonfly."
September 3, 2017
"Dragonfly" is the follow-up EP to 2015's "Stormbringer". Continuing the minimalistic journey of that release, these three new songs are prime examples of Paul Vario's atmospheric and cinematic approach to instrumental rock. His metal roots never far from the surface, Paul's bass-driven grooves and prog-inspired keyboard work provide the canvas for soaring, anthemic guitar melodies. Always thematic, never self-indulgent, his "anti-shred" style of lead playing is fully on display.
Paul Vario is one of the most respected and in-demand private music instructors in New York City. Students travel from all five Boroughs and Long Island to work with this 20-year veteran instructor. Paul has toured, recorded and performed with Son Seals, Goldy McJohn, Mark Wood, Al Pitrelli, Jordan Rudess, Alex Skolnick, Tony Harnell, John McEnroe and many others. He has performed live in front of thousands, on international television and radio and his session work has been featured in network broadcasts and films.
At the PVM studio, Paul has worked with hundreds of students, many of whom have gone on to have successful careers in music performance, production and education. Paul Vario Music opened on February 1, 2012, and is his proudest achievement.
