Paul Blair (DJ White Shadow) has disrupted the music industry. Always remaining true to himself and his hard-working roots. DJWS developed a unique ear and sound in an industry dominated by "sameness." His work and personal ethics have cut through the stagnant music industry and catapulted Paul to the upper echelon of music producers, writers, publishers, and brand ambassadors. It has also earned him a spot as the right hand man of none other than Lady Gaga.
Paul's path, like his music, has never been a straight line. Coming from the farmlands of the Midwest, he was influenced heavily by the underground techno scenes of Detroit and Chicago. At the tender age of 19, his indelible ear and skills landed him a residency in Japan. From there, he earned the confidence and the credibility to perform all over the world including residencies in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Las Vegas, Miami, Barcelona, and London.
With a keen ability to always stay one step ahead of the crowd, Paul used his stature as a DJ to enter the top studios and create with the likes of Common, Rachel Platten, Sia, Estelle, Pitbull, DNCE, Austin Mahone, and, of course, Lady Gaga. A-list musicians were not the only ones to recognize Paul's talent and abilities. Brands like Bud Light, Ford, Armani, The Montage, Moncler, Playboy and several others have used Paul's music as well as his image to connect with customers much in the same way he continues to connect with his adoring fans.
Paul's knack for knowing what is next has not gone unnoticed. He has been part of over 24 million records sold, earned Grammy nominations, Clio awards and numerous other accolades. Paul is the Global Music Director for The W Hotel, the owner of multi-platinum and award-winning publishing company, Maxwell and Carter Publishing and a serial entrepreneur having lent his hand and knowledge to several tech and hospitality startups.
Seemingly ageless, Paul's productivity continues to expand. DJWS recently collaborated with Gaga for her latest release, "The Cure," which has since gone platinum. He is credited as executive producer and producer for the "My Little Pony: The Movie" soundtrack, which was Hasbro's first feature length animated film. He continued his soundtrack work playing a major part in the music for Bradley Cooper's film release "A Star is Born." Paul is working on his debut major label release slated for early 2019.
