'Making an album: just a joker' WINS SHORT FILM HONOR

‘MAKING AN ALBUM: JUST A JOKER' HAS BEEN SELECTED AS A FINALIST FOR THE 2026 INDEPENDENT SHORT AWARDS BY THE LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL.

A storyteller and dynamic vocalist based in Austin, Paul Corliss writes poetic songs that blend vinyl-era rock grooves with outlaw country twang to cook up a unique musical gumbo that's pure Texas Americana. Just a Joker, the follow-up to Paul's 2022 debut album Glow, is now available on all streaming platforms. 

LISTEN: Spotify, Apple, Amazon, Pandora, Deezer, YouTube

Just a Joker consists of seven original songs – including four new tunes that have never been released. The other three songs on the album were previously released as a trilogy of singles called  Travels, Travails, Triumphs in 2024 and have collectively earned nearly 300,000 individual streams on Spotify. Paul recently discussed these songs as part of a featured songwriter interview for Happy Magazine. 

All seven songs on Just a Joker were recorded at Sunland Sound studio in Dallas where Michael Smith served as producer, engineer and multi-instrumentalist (especially guitars). Players on the album (alphabetically): Paul Corliss (lead/backing vocals), Burton Lee (pedal steel guitar), Colin McCartney (bass), Saint Clair Newburn (guitar), Sam Nicholls (piano), Brian Roach (bass), Michael Smith (guitars, synth, organ, percussion), Brian Tadlock (drums) and Nate Wedan (drums/percussion). 

An engaging live performer and front man, Paul plays throughout Texas with his band Dirty South.
