The best of 2024! 🫶 Each year we like to celebrate our favourite photo / moment of the year and we were extremely honoured to share this photo and lovely story from one of his fans (Alison) when she was able to meet Paul on his tour stop in Australia. 🇦🇺

Here’s an unboxing vid of that 66 ultimate WOODEN collector’s box we reported on a while back. Yeah, it’s pricey and all but, honestly, the real thing actually looks quite beautiful. They’re limited to 1000, so if it’s in your budget, grab one up. (shop.paulweller.com/products/66-...)

On Five Leaves Left… “It’s got that quintessential English melancholy feel. There’s a song called, “River Man,” which is my all-time favourite Nick Drake song - the string arrangement is just fantastic!” -PW

“We made this mad film called, 𝗝𝗲𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗺 - probably one of the worst films ever made, but that’s not a bad thing. We showed it before our gigs. People were baffled, but we were just experimenting and having fun.” - 𝗣𝗮𝘂𝗹 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿⁣
