Set to an epic driven electro rock backing, RUN is the second autobiographical slice of Paul Iwan's forthcoming RESISTER album.

Embedded in the sweeping synths, percolating arpeggios and grinding guitars Paul opens a conversation about his own mental health issues. Paul says "RUN is about avoidance. I can look back at things now with a bit more perspective but I got so lost, I wasn't living my life. Someone once said to me "running from your problems is a race you'll never win". By the time I'd realised that was true, my alcoholism had spiralled out of control and had been diagnosed with PTSD. Getting help is the best thing I've ever done".

RUN is released 7th December 2018.

Written, produced and performed by Paul Iwan with Steven Burkert on drums.
Recorded at Space and Studio 45, Liverpool.
Mixed by Andy Fernihough
Mastered by Pete Maher

Paul Iwan - Run

Liverpool Based Singer Songwriter and Multi-Instrumentalist

‘You’re never too far away from a seductive melody or an inspirational rush...the quality of his work stands loud and proud’
Mike Ainscoe, www.atthebarrier.com

Mixing elements of Electro with Alternative Rock and emotive songwriting, Paul Iwan (yoo-un) is one of the most intriguing talents in Liverpool’s fertile and eclectic scene.

2019 was a big year for Iwan. His self-released and self-produced debut album Resister hit the shelves to local critical acclaim and was immediately pronounced ‘a classic’ by John Robb’s www.louderthanwar.com

Later the same year, Iwan entered and won the 24hr Songwriting Challenge at Liverpool’s Threshold Festival with new song Returning and also acquired Julian Cope’s legendary green Framus guitar, releasing a tribute to his hero with a cover of the Eighties classic ‘Reward’.

Other highlights so far include airplay on BBC Radio 6, a songwriting mentorship with The Kinks iconic frontman Ray Davies and numerous appearances at the International Pop Overthrow Festival in New York.

In 2021, Iwan signed with independent local label Klee Music and released his new album Present in April 2022.

Described by www.explore-liverpool.com as ‘a powerful and thought-provoking record and one on repeat’ and www.liverpoolsoundandvision.co.uk as ‘a masterpiece’, Present is available now on limited edition red vinyl, CD and download at www.pauliwan.co.uk
