Cargnello garnered the Alex Soria Fountains Award for Best Singer-Songwriter-Performer at the 2005 MIMI awards. This was a watershed for a career developed and honed from the ground up, where Paul's personal vendetta upon the music scene was to be himself above all else. Marked by political activism, powerful lyricism, and an eclectic blend of musical styles, Paul has stayed true to a city that has influenced his now distinct sound that can only be labeled as Montrealaise. Cargnello's urban and edgy folk-rock is backed by solid musicianship that can be transcended to the streets of any major city.
There is a feel to his music ? as if you are stepping out with him onto the city streets and seeing the world around you for the first time. Cargnello has the ability to take you to an intimate and poetic place in the same tradition of the great troubadours and chansonniers before him. In that same tradition, it is the public that has come forward to nourish and sustain his career marked by conviction and integrity.
Choosing to write and perform in both French and English, his debut "Lightweight Romeo" and sophomore "Between Evils" both achieved critical acclaim. With the solid backup of his band The Frontline, a live album recorded at Va-et-Vient (St Henri, Montreal) has been launched and is already making its impact on the sounds of summer.
His new album in french - Bras coupé - was released in april.

Paul Cargnello Lyrics
Enemy I said, Ooh, don't you wanna party with me? Well baby…
Hooked On You I can't stop staring it's true all of me is hooked…
Promises Promises, they're all meant be kept every time that I've bro…
Separate Ways I don't want to, but I need you and I don't…
Two Nobodies Two nobodies talking about nothing in the middle of nowhere …
