Ronnie Pauls, the founding member of SUNDOWN, hails from Westchester County,NY and has been performing in the NY City Tri-State area since 1975. Although few in number, his past bands include Mantra, Scarlet, The Legendary Sophisticatos, and Boothill. He has also spent time performing through out the North East US with a 12 piece international Ukrainian band, which released three albums that still sell through out the US, Canada, Europe and Russia.

Ronnie started playing the guitar at the age of five. His musical influences at that early age were country western, classical, big band swing and jazz. He quit taking formal guitar lessons after several years and started to develop his ability to play by ear. He began studying and taking on the style and sound of such guitar greats as Duane Allman, Eric Clapton and Leslie West, which has combined to form his own unique style of playing, and has entertained audiences over the last three decades. Ronnie has been hailed as one of the most fluid and expressional guitarists around.
