Summary
Paul Stacey (born 27 September 1963) is a British guitarist and producer, best known for his work with Oasis, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds and the Black Crowes. Stacey's early work included the 1990s band, the Lemon Trees (with twin brother Jeremy Stacey on drums, Guy Chambers and others) and Denzil. On 29 September 2006, Stacey was named as the replacement for Marc Ford in the Black Crowes, only a day after Ford faxed the band his resignation and two days before the band's fall tour was set to begin. Previous to this announcement Stacey had worked with The Black Crowes by remastering the band's album The Lost Crowes. Stacey toured with The Black Crowes through the end of 2006 and is credited as a co-producer (with the rest of the band) for the Crowes' 2008 release Warpaint. He has also worked with Chris Robinson (producing and co-writing), the Finn Brothers, Claire Martin (guitar, keys and bass on Take My Heart, 1999), The Syn (guitar, co-writing and co-production on Syndestructible, 2005), Elkie Brooks (on stage and her 1989 album Inspiration), Minuteman (guitar, production and mixing on Resigned to Life, 2002), Black Car and The Kooks (single version of "Eddies Gun", 2005). He has also worked with Lucio Battisti in La Sposa Occidentale (1990) and with Patricia Kaas on her album Je Te Dis Vous (1993), recorded at the Eel Pie Studios in Twickenham. Both Stacey brothers played on Tom Jones' "Praise and Blame tour in November 2010. In 2011, Stacey was musical director for the play Backbeat at the Duke of York's Theatre, London. In 2017, he co-produced/engineered Steven Wilson's album To the Bone, also playing a guitar solo on track "Refuge". Noel Gallagher has described Stacey as having "an incredible ear for guitar sounds" and called him "an amazing guitarist, as well". Stacey worked for Oasis in a number of different capacities between 1999 and 2008. Originally brought in to engineer Standing on the Shoulder of Giants (2000), he performed a number of other roles as the band suffered line-up issues for the recording of the album, particularly contributing bass guitar work in the absence of the band's bassist Paul McGuigan.
