About Paul Bryan
Artist Biography
Bassist and producer Paul Bryan is best known for his long-standing collaboration with Aimee Mann, but as a solo artist, he has branched out in a more experimental, jazz-based direction. Bryan established himself as a bassist for musicians like Carol Noonan in the 1990s, before becoming the bassist and bandleader for Mann, eventually also producing her albums, including her Grammy-winning 2017 effort Mental Illness. As a musician and producer, Bryan worked with performers like Tanita Tikaram, Susanna Hoffs, Amy Correia, and Grant Lee Phillips as well, but he also pursued work with more out-of-the-box artists like guitarist Jeff Parker or saxophonist Josh Johnson. Bryan's own 2020 album Cri$el Gems featured a group with Parker, and two years later, he recorded an ambient trio album entitled A Better Ghost. In 2024, he presented his next solo album, Western Electric, recorded as a trio with Josh Johnson and drummer Jay Bellerose.
