New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Pavement PR) - On October 26th Partisan Records will release the latest full-length effort from Paleo entitled "A View Of The Sky." It will be available in CD, LP, Ltd. Edition Color Vinyl and Digital Download formats. For Paleo, art doesn't imitate life, it is life. Self-contained, he has been traveling the country for the last 6 years. The time has been spent studying the endless facets of a world both in and outside of himself, all the while chronicling his journey through song.

Booking his own shows, he has been playing roughly 150 dates a year while living out of his car and staying with people kind enough to share a couch, a bed, and some breakfast. Homeless and at home, he seems to have found a refuge within his songs as a prolific lyricist and writer. He recorded a song every day for 365 days as a discipline in songwriting he called "The Song Diary". If you want to know Paleo, you have only to listen to his body of work, which at this point is staggering. Paleo's songs focus on what most people take for granted in their day to day and year to year, revealing not just a series of dots, but a portrait.

On his newest record, A View Of The Sky, the music mines a depth of greater purpose beyond the traditional. Song after song transports the listener through melodic landscapes unique, immediate, emotive, playful, and filled with longing. There is nothing contrived in the structures of his songs, and the phrasing is a deep rooted reference to the great writers who have come before him.

But deconstructing Paleo seems futile, because he has already moved on. His music is an echo that grows, builds to a crest, dies, and begins again, evolving always, whether someone is there to bare witness or not.

"The man once wrote 365 songs in a year, and he's still cranking 'em out ... and they're good. The new record is called A View of the Sky.' - USA TODAY

"The itinerant singer-songwriter fashions one of the season's unlikeliest stunners." - WASHINGTON POST

"Profound in a way that you've never heard. There's so much at work in all of these miraculous songs about some of the roots of evil and wonder. A man this enlightened might glow in the dark." - Sean Moeller / DAYTROTTER

'The guy makes Ryan Adams and Bright Eyes seem lazy. Paleo's is an incredible story of creativity and discipline. It's all chaos and intrigue, visions of Jeff Buckley and Donovan and Tom Waits and M. Ward - all eerie psych-folk sounds and gorgeous poetry and it demands your attention: Once you're in, you're in.' - Bruce Warren / WXPN

"... hymns of a traveler, endowed with a fascination for nature and a restless acceptance of changing circumstance." - MOTHER JONES

'Paleo mostly trades in the folk-troubadour tones common to M. Ward - or, if you're a real scholar, Death Vessel and Micah Blue Smaldone.' - MAGNET

'In a streetfight of freakish prolificacy, Paleo could kick Stephin Merritt and Ryan Adams' asses any day (perhaps taking on Robert Pollard and Sufjan Stevens for an encore).' - PASTE

'Incredibly prolific D.I.Y. nomad� this talented artist shows no signs of slowing down at all.' - THE TRIPWIRE

'... a modern-day Jack Kerouac... haunting and melancholic voice.' - DAYTON DAILY NEWS

'� a devotion that makes Sufjan Stevens look like a dabbler. These songs are a more-than-worthy array of lo-fi, quirky folk.' - POPMATTERS

'Undeniably impressive' - TIME OUT CHICAGO

'Armed with a gently cracking voice, a six-string acoustic guitar, and a never-ending repertoire of expressive folk-pop ballads, the itinerant singer/songwriter staves off creative ennui with an ambitious online "song diary.' �the lo-fi recordings swing between howling world-weariness and manic, bat-shit happiness, recalling both the magical weirdness of Neutral Milk Hotel and the disturbed genius of Elliott Smith.' - FLAVORPILL NYC

"In an age where being prolific is the new black, Paleo is the most stylish of musicians." - THE BOSTON GLOBE

'�ambitious� eccentric�impressive.' - CREATIVE LOAFING: TAMPA

'� raw, acoustic folk songs and a gentle voice somewhere along the lines of Elliott Smith.' - AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN
