About Us

Long before the first track was recorded, our founder, Paul W. Sammarco (also known as Paul Summers), dreamed of producing songs that didn’t just follow trends, but honored the tradition of musical standards—melodies that were timeless, uplifting, and rich with heart. That dream became P&J Records.

Our mission is simple: to present the standards of the future. That means crafting music that feels fresh yet familiar, rooted in excellence, and meant to be enjoyed across generations. Whether it’s a soulful ballad, an acoustic instrumental, or a heartfelt piano solo, every P&J release carries the same promise—music made with meaning.

Over the years, our label has grown to include a talented circle of vocalists, instrumentalists, and composers—all united by a love for artistry and authenticity. From the Paul and Friends series to the beautiful piano works of Donna Sammarco, our catalog reflects not just music, but memory, emotion, and purpose.
