A veteran of the Irish comedy scene, this likeable Corkman has become one of the most popular acts on the circuit.

Formerly a roadie and long-distance trucker, now a suburban Dad reluctantly approaching 40, Paul's unique take on life as a modern Irishman has been leaving audiences in stitches from Cork to New York. A natural story-teller.
