Paul Waaktaar-Savoy

Paul Waaktaar-Savoy (tidligere Pål Waaktaar Gamst; født 6. september 1961 på Tonsenhagen i Oslo) er en norsk musiker og låtskriver i popgruppene a-ha (gitar) og Savoy (vokal, gitar, keyboard og bass). Han vokste opp på Manglerud hvor han og Magne Furuholmen startet a-ha i 1982. I 1991 giftet han seg med amerikanske Lauren Savoy som han senere startet bandet Savoy med. Han er bosatt i New York og Oslo.

Kongen utnevnte i 2012 Waaktaar-Savoy til ridder av 1. klasse av St. Olavs Orden for «innsats for norsk musikkliv». Waaktaar-Savoy ble i 2011 sammen med a-ha innlemmet i Rockheim Hall of Fame.
