I’m a composer, songwriter, recording artists, performer and teacher. I’m founder and artistic director of Kid Pan Alley, co-founder of Trapezoid, as well as my current bands, Paul Reisler & A Thousand Questions featuring Howard Levy, and Three Good Reasons. Over the past 40 years, I’ve performed in over 3,000 concerts, recorded close to three-dozen albums, written Aesop’s Fables for Orchestra and Narrator, as well as the script and songs for a two new musicals--Bouncin’, and The Talented Clementine.
I love to inspire others to explore their own creativity. I've done that with over 70,000 children through Kid Pan Alley and I've done it for thousands of adult songwriters to amateur and professional through my songwriting workshops and camps around the country. A few of the places I've taught include;ˇ Rocky Mountain Song School, Utah Song School, New Song Academy, Swannanoa Gathering, Augusta Workshop, Hollyhock, Kerrville, NSAI, Songcamp in the Mountains, Puget Sound Guitar Workshop, Berklee College of Music, University of the Pacific, and Moulin a Nef (France).
