“Harper n Hubble music” are two friends who decided to get together to combine their musical ideas.
Paul Harper n Andy Hubble initially worked in education teaching Sound Production/Music Technology at Sandwell College, Paul later went on to teach for Bournville College, while Andy stayed on at Sandwell.
It wasn't until after they both had left education that they decided to form a recording, production and song-writing partnership. Paul had been working with other musicians and vocalists for a while, which saw a number of his songs released by these artists. Paul and his wife Lynda live in Shropshire, which gives him more time to relax, write and play. Also according to Lyn, on the days of the HnH recording sessions it gets Paul from under her feet!
Andy, has for some time been producing music for Relax Listen, which initially was a vehicle for music placement in film and television. After signing a music distribution deal he went on to release the albums featured on the Relax Listen section of this site.
Recently after leaving their previous distributor they have now set up their own record label Myvod Records.

Paul has performed in local bands as a vocalist and guitarist and went on to teach Music Technology and Production at Sandwell College, then later at Bourneville College. During his time as a lecturer he co-wrote a rock opera "Winds of Treachery" which was performed at the Edinburgh fringe festival. The music score received a very complimentary review by the "Scotsman" (the Scottish national newspaper).
Since leaving the teaching profession Paul has continued to concentrate on song writing and also performing several music festivals and gigs.
Currently Paul is working with Andy, a close friend and exe teaching colleague, writing and producing new music. He lives with his wife Lynda, enjoying long country walks.
