Paolo Nutini was signed to Atlantic Records in May 2005, shortly after his 18th birthday. He released his first single "These Streets as a free download in May 2006, this was then followed by his first single "Last Request" which was released on 4 July 2006 and charted at #5 in the official UK charts. In the video for "Last Request", Nutini plays the part of a robber - though this is not revealed until the end. Nutini's third single, "Jenny Don't Be Hasty", was released on 25 September 2006 and got to #20 on the UK Singles Chart. "Rewind" was Nutini's fourth single. It was released on 4 December 2006, and reached #27 in the UK.
His debut album "++++, produced by Ken Nelson (Coldplay/Gomez), was released on 17 July 2006 and immediately entered the UK album charts at #3. Many of the songs on the album, including "Last Request" and "Rewind", were inspired by a turbulent relationship with his current girlfriend, Teri Brogan, and "Jenny Don't Be Hasty" is a true story about encounters with an older woman.
Paolo has said that he will be releasing a new album in June 2008.
