Biography
Paul Mateki's biography.
Paul and Helen Mateki are two of the most respected Independent artists in the world today! Before Paul fell in love with and married Helen, he worked relentlessly for 10 years, honing his songwriting skills, vocal abilities, becoming a master on the guitar, and a prolific studio producer of all the songs he's sessioned to include on CDs.
Paul released 5 dynamic CD's in those early 10 years... the latest one in 2003 with his wonderfully talented wife Helen.
He has recieved untold Independent awards in the European music industry, including ECMA "Independent Album of the Year" 1998 ("Across the Miles," which spent a record-breaking 85 weeks in the ECMA Top 40 Album Chart) along with numerous #1 hits on the European Charts. He is also a valued member of the "Colorado International Country Music Hall of Fame" in the U.S.A.
Paul has shared the stage with and opened for many well known artists, including Lyle Lovett, Gene Watson, Tommy Cash, Norma Jean, The Oak Ridge Boys, and Ernie Ashworth, just to name a few. He has also recorded 3 duets with his good friend Ernie Ashworth, of Grand Ole Opry fame, as well as an appearance with Helen and Ernie on the "Ernest Tubb Midnight Jamboree".
Paul has toured Europe 10 times and Australia twice, with ever-increasing chart success, gaining cherished and solid fan support wherever he goes. With the recent inclusion of his talented wife, Helen, in the act, the popularity of their "duo" endeavors and seamless harmonies has caught the ears of DJs and fans throughout the world, keeping them continually high on daily playlists and chart activity.
Known worldwide now as "THE MATEKI's", and recent recipients of the European CMA "Duo of the Year" Awards 2005, Paul and Helen are currently working on fresh, new material for their eagerly anticipated next CD. It's obvious that European DJs and fans are in for a real surprise and treat from this very talented Texas U.S.A. duo.
