Paul Herman began his musical career as the guitarist in Faithless. He was involved in the studio recording of several Faithless albums and toured extensively with the band. It was whilst with Faithless that he became friends with a then unknown Dido and began writing with her.
Together they collaborated on four Dido songs, ('Thank You', 'All You Want', ‘Don’t Think Of Me’ and ‘Slide’), which became part of her multi-million selling album 'No Angel'. 'Thank You' was also sampled by Eminem and became the basis for his chart topping worldwide hit 'Stan'.
Paul then went on to sing lead and play guitar with the band Skinny, who released two albums, 'The Weekend' on Polygram, and 'Taller' on BMG.
2005 was a successful year for Paul as he wrote with Natasha Bedingfield, (‘I Bruise Easily’), and Jem, (‘Flying High’). Paul also collaborated on several tracks with the British dance act Mint Royale and these were included on their last album, 'See You In The Morning Light'.
Paul’s most recent collaboration was with Corinne Bailey-Rae, which led to two co-written and produced tracks (‘Till It Happens To You’ and ‘I’d Like To’), which featured on her Grammy nominated debut album.
