Biography
"Energetic...quick witted" -- Washington Post
Paul and Storm have been writing and performing funny songs together for a long, long time, starting with their stint together in a cappella band Da Vinci’s Notebook. Their music tends to make people laugh and feel good, and Paul and Storm believe that this makes their pursuit noble, right and just.
BONUS: their live show is better than 1,000 Fonzies, and more spellbinding than Mr. T on a unicycle.
Anyone with ADD will appreciate the broad range of territory that Paul and Storm cover in their music... Chicken nuggets. Love. Boxing nuns. Relationships. Pirates. Friendship. If James Taylor were on fire.
Catchy melodies and well-constructed music underpin the comedy, and in live performance their harmonies draw comparisons to the Everly Brothers, while their stage presence evokes the Barenaked Ladies. They will do nearly anything to win the hearts and minds of their audiences, and often throw Twinkies, Moon Pies and/or other snack cakes into the crowd to help seal the deal. Occasionally, panties are thrown back.
All of their music is available from their website (www.paulandstorm.com) in CD format or as downloadable mp3's.
Paul and Storm's music is often heard on the "Bob and Tom" syndicated morning radio show, and has been heard on “The Drew Carey Show”, Comedy Central, XM Satellite Radio's "Dr. Demento" show, and on the popular web cartoon site Homestarrunner.com.
Greg "Storm" DiCostanzo proudly plays Martin guitars.
