Paul Cardall

The three time Billboard charting recording artist Paul Cardall has inspired people worldwide. Not only as a songwriter, composer, and performer, but he has been successful running his own independent record label Stone Angel Music for more than 10 years.

As a teenager, Cardall discovered his gift of music. After a friend’s tragic death, he found solace through the family piano. Over the next several years, Cardall spent hours writing songs, without much formal training.

Cardall was also busy learning he had a gift of working with people. After serving a 2-year mission for his Church he was recruited by Salt Lake Community College with a full ride leadership scholarship. He was involved in student affairs, serving as the Fine Arts President and Public Relations Vice-President. He had the opportunity to work as a board member with a 6-figure budget, coordinating hundreds of events for students and people in the community. He oversaw events with local and national performers, poets, and authors. He also served as President of the Student Leadership Council and was able to help the college administration with organizing recruiting activities.

During his college experience, Cardall took jobs playing the piano for tips in Nordstrom and in fine dining restaurants in Salt Lake City, Utah. Many customers requested a CD of his music, and so in 1994 he Paul recorded his first album titled Sign of Affection. A copy made its way to #1 New York Times best-selling author Richard Paul Evans, writer of The Christmas Box.
