Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on February 18, 1964)

Happy Birthday, Paul Hanley! From keeping perfect rhythm with The Fall to charming us all alongside The Lovers, your beats have always been legendary. You've drummed your way into indie rock history—proving that sticks and skins can indeed change the world (or at least make it dance a little better).

Here's wishing you another year filled with epic drum solos, unforgettable gigs, and fewer moments of "Wait—which song are we playing again?" Keep rocking those drums like only you can; after all these years, you're still our favorite beat-maker. Cheers to more timeless rhythms ahead!
