About Paul Ubana Jones

Swiss-English musician Paul Ubana Jones began his music career playing the guitar at the age of 11, the beginning of a four-decade career that would see him crossing continents, recording eight albums, and settling down right here in Aotearoa.

After time spent in the US and a successful touring and teaching career in Switzerland, Paul and his family moved to New Zealand in the late eighties. As a New Zealand resident, Paul’s trajectory continued in the musical arena performing regularly throughout Australia and New Zealand building a loyal fan base and sharing the stage with other artists like Crowded House, Norah Jones, Bob Dylan and many others. Paul’s contemporary style is influenced by blues, rock, folk and jazz, and has won him three New Zealand Music awards.
