Paul Speare

Paul George Speare (born 10 December 1955) is an English composer, producer, freelance saxophonist and flute player, formerly a member of Dexys Midnight Runners[1] and The TKO Horns.

He attended Dagenham County High School where he began playing drums, piano and viola when he was 15 years of age.

He featured on the Stone Foundation albums "Street Rituals" (2017) produced by Paul Weller, "Everybody, Anyone" (2018) and "Is Love Enough" (2020), on which he played baritone/tenor sax and flute.

These were the first four of his compositions to feature himself as a lead player and written in a genre which fuses jazz, soul, classical and cinematic influences.

Speare continues to write new material for his own forthcoming music/video projects, and records flute and saxophone parts remotely for various productions.
