Previous Page (Galleries)Paul Gilreath - conductor of an adult orchestra at age 15, in-demand Hollywood composer at age 21, author of a best selling book on midi orchestration, and an acclaimed pianist and arranger - is creating music quite unlike anyone else on the popular music scene. His original instrumental compositions are a blend of pop, new adult contemporary and smooth jazz.
Born in Homestead, Florida, USA, he began piano lessons when he was four and played piano in recitals and competitions throughout grade school and high school. At only 17 years old, he and his group Source won the "Battle of bands" of Atlanta. After graduating, Gilreath set his sights on Los Angeles. There he composed music for several student films. Very soon, he found himself scoring films for such major studios and production companies as Twentieth Century Fox, New World Pictures, and Cannon Films. After years of standing in the background as a composer, studio musician, and orchestral conductor, Paul Gilreath is reaching new heights of popularity as a solo artist.
