Paul Isola


Paul Isola is a Gibraltarian musician and songwriter. He is best known for being lead vocalist in the Flamenco metal band, Breed 77, which he left in 2013.
Isola was one of the original members and founders of the band. He also plays the djembe, piano, flamenco guitar and palmas.
Being a native Gibraltarian, Isola is naturally bilingual in English and Spanish and uses this ability to his advantage when writing songs. He often incorporates Spanish words and phrases into the band's lyrics, sometimes writing them fully in Spanish.
Isola announced his departure from Breed 77 on their website on 28 August 2013, citing personal reasons. He stated he was leaving the band in good hands with new singer, Rui Lopez.
In early 2014, Isola temporarily returned to Breed 77 to complete a 'very special one-off tour' of the UK. The tour was in celebration of the tenth anniversary of the release of the band's seminal Cultura album and culminated on 15 March 2014 with a main stage performance at Hammerfest VI.
