The Story of a
Songwriting Team
The musical connection between the two cities of Kraichtal/Germany, and Birmingham/UK, is an international songwriting partnership that proves music unites.
Paul Douglas and Gunter Hauser met in 1993 at an international songwriting conference in London. They first collaborated when Paul wrote a brass section for one of Gunter's songs.
A year later, at another conference, they decided to collaborate more frequently. Together with Andy Callin, Derek Crehan, Richard Evans and Katherine Nelson, they formed the band
>Paul Douglas And The Vision Crew<
They recorded the CD Field of Vision and played concerts in the UK and Germany.
Until then, Paul had been touring as a solo artist after completing his music studies. He had collaborated with musicians such as The Housemartins and Everything But The Girl, who were fellow students.
Gunter had developed his own songwriting, set up his studio and played with various bands.
In 1996, Paul and Gunter continued their collaboration with the second production >Free Some Day< by the Paul Douglas Band, signed to Brother Records, Germany, the label of Vilko and Edo Zanki.
In 1999, >It Is Time< was released, now under the name Douglas & Hauser and as the first production of DH Records.
With >eternal< (2004), the two songwriters proved their lyrical and musical maturity as well as their significant sound.
Meanwhile, they are immersing themselves in jazz with their Spirit'n'Jazz project, which is gaining attention worldwide.
And they are building international bridges with the European cultural project Europe Spirit.
Gunter is constantly working in his
Tutto Vanita Studio on songs, mixes and masterings for various artists. And Douglas & Hauser also produce young talents.
