Paul Heilker is a singer, songwriter, guitar player with 40 years of live musical experience. He writes and performs acoustic originals which feature strong melodies, lucid lyrics and a wide range of musical influences including rock, country, folk, jazz and pop.

"I'm a guitar player, singer, writer, and teacher from Blacksburg, VA by way of Chicago, Fort Worth, Fort Collins, and Wantagh, Long Island.

My parents met at the Juilliard School of Music in New York City in the late 1940s. My dad was a music teacher who insisted that there was good music in every genre. Hence, my tastes are pretty eclectic, but I am partial to the well-crafted song, whatever its origins."
-- Paul Heilker
