Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on May 03, 1978)

Happy Birthday, Paul Banks! Another year older, yet your voice remains as timelessly cool as Interpol's iconic riffs. May your birthday be filled with more joy than the first time you heard fans singing along to "Slow Hands" at a packed concert—because let's face it, that's pretty unbeatable.

From crafting poetic lyrics that echo through generations to effortlessly rocking stages worldwide, you've given us countless memorable moments. Here's hoping this next chapter brings even greater success and fewer awkward stage dives (though we secretly love those too). Cheers to another year of brilliance and keeping indie rock eternally stylish!
