Covid winners! Er, excuse me! Do you know Paul O’Sullivan from Manchester?

This is him! Some say he may live in Moston?

If you see him don’t be a stranger – he’s not behind the door at coming forward himself.

And in fact he was part of the world’s first cyber Covid-lockdown band just over six months ago!

Now everybody, including Dylan, is following him – and the other Pauls!

Yep, four strangers named Paul O’Sullivan from across the world are now rocking all over the internet.

And this year Paul and his mates released their first album.

Not in any particular order, one Paul O’Sullivan is from Baltimore (USA), a second is from Pennsylvania (US) and another Paul is from Rotterdam (Netherlands).

And then of course there’s our Paul!

Recognise him yet?

This group of Paul O’Sullivans ended up becoming best mates after meeting on Facebook. 

Paul from Baltimore said: “One night, I was kind of just indiscriminately adding Paul O’Sullivans on Facebook and a good amount of them accepted my friend requests. Eventually, their stuff started showing up in my news feed. And I was like, ‘Wait a minute, we’re all musicians.’ ” 

Eventually the Pauls decided to form a group and called it ‘The Paul O’Sullivan Band’.

Pennsylvania Paul is on drums etc, Baltimore Paul and Rotterdam Paul are on guitar and vocals.

And our Paul is on bass.

He has said: “In this world, sometimes you think everything’s been done. Particularly with the internet, everything’s been covered, everything’s been done. Well actually, this felt like a first. And it still feels like a first.”

Last year they put out a single and when the world went on into lockdown becauser of COVID-19 they to record a remote album.

If you see Paul say hello and tell him to get in touch with Leigh at the leighgbankspreservationsociety.blog, we’d like to chat with him!
