Paul Child - more than a tribute!
Best known for his involvement with Welsh rugby, Paul Child is Wales' biggest-selling independent artist.

In 2000, Paul Child self-financed the album Wales Forever as a tribute to David Alexander. Although the cost was just £2,500, it has gone on to become to the biggest-selling independently-released album ever in Wales, selling over 100,000 copies around the world.

In 2003, he appeared on the World In Union album alongside fellow Welsh stars Tom Jones and Shirley Bassey to commemorate the Rugby World Cup. His rugby connection has continued with pre-match appearances at the Millennium Stadium. 

Each time he's sung before the match, Wales have registered a victory.

He has performed all over the world including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Spain, Tenerife, Bahrain and a tour of Australia with Max Boyce.

We are in negotiations with Paul's US agent, Howard Beder Jr to supply artistes worldwide for his clients regarding cruises, resorts, casinos and more.
