Who is Paul Weller?

One of the most iconic names in British music, Paul Weller this year celebrates 50 years in the industry.

Most well known for being a member of ‘The Jam’, Weller has had a significant impact on music.

Following the disbanding of ‘The Jam’ in 1982, Weller formed ‘Style Council’ in 1983 in an attempt to work on more melodic and soulful music.

Style Council split up in 1989, and Weller has continued with a strong solo career almost ever since.
